BS170 MOSFET – 60V 500mA N-Channel Small Signal MOSFET TO-92 Package (Pack Of 5)

Description

1. N-Channel MOSFET: The BS170 is an N-Channel MOSFET, which means it conducts current when a positive voltage is applied to the gate relative to the source terminal. N-Channel MOSFETs are commonly used for switching applications.

2. Low Voltage and Current Rating: With a voltage rating of 60V and a current rating of 500mA, the BS170 is suitable for low-power applications where moderate voltage and current handling capabilities are required.

3. TO-92 Package: The TO-92 package is a widely used plastic encapsulated package with three leads (gate, drain, and source). It is easy to handle and mount on a circuit board, making it suitable for various electronic projects.

4. Small Signal MOSFET: The BS170 is designed for small signal applications, making it suitable for switching small loads, signal amplification, and other low-power electronic circuits.

5. Enhancement-Mode: The BS170 is an enhancement-mode MOSFET, which means it requires a positive voltage applied to the gate relative to the source to allow current flow between the drain and source terminals.

6. Low On-Resistance: The BS170 typically has low on-resistance (RDS(on)), which means it can conduct current with relatively low resistance when fully turned on, leading to minimal power loss and efficient operation.
