BC558 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
The maximum operating temperature range for the BC558 is -55°C to 150°C.
-
Yes, the BC558 can be used as a switch, but it's not recommended due to its relatively low current gain and high saturation voltage. It's better suited for amplifier applications.
-
To ensure proper biasing, set the base voltage to around 0.7V to 1V, and adjust the collector-emitter voltage to the desired level. Also, ensure the collector current is within the recommended range.
-
The maximum collector current rating for the BC558 is 1A.
-
The BC558 is not suitable for high-frequency applications due to its relatively low transition frequency (fT) of around 100 MHz. For high-frequency applications, consider using a transistor with a higher fT.
