series introduction

The BSS138-7 Series is a highly versatile line of N-channel MOSFETs, engineered to deliver exceptional performance in a variety of low-voltage applications. Renowned for their efficiency and reliability, these MOSFETs are ideally suited for switching and amplification tasks, making them a staple in both consumer and industrial electronic designs. With a maximum drain-source voltage (Vds) of 50V and a continuous drain current (Id) of up to 220mA, the BSS138-7 Series excels in managing power with minimal heat generation, allowing for compact circuit designs without compromising performance.

One of the standout features of the BSS138-7 Series is its low gate threshold voltage (Vgs(th)), which typically ranges from 0.8V to 3V. This characteristic enables the device to be driven easily by low-voltage logic levels, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of microcontrollers and digital circuits. The series also boasts a fast switching speed, with a rise time of approximately 50ns and a fall time of 30ns, which is essential for high-frequency applications such as pulse-width modulation (PWM) and signal switching.

The design of the BSS138-7 Series emphasizes compactness and efficiency. Packaged in a surface-mount configuration, these MOSFETs are suited for space-constrained designs commonly found in mobile devices, consumer electronics, and IoT applications. Their small footprint and lightweight design facilitate easy integration into high-density PCB layouts while maintaining thermal performance.

Typical applications for the BSS138-7 Series include low-side switching, motor control, relay drivers, and LED drivers, where precise control of current flow is crucial. Additionally, the series is well-suited for use in battery-operated devices, where energy efficiency is paramount. With its impressive combination of performance characteristics, the BSS138-7 Series stands as an excellent choice for engineers seeking reliable and efficient solutions in modern electronic designs.
