BSS138L Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The BSS138L can operate safely between -55°C to 150°C, but the recommended operating temperature range is -40°C to 125°C.

  • To ensure proper biasing, the gate-source voltage (Vgs) should be between 2.5V to 10V, and the drain-source voltage (Vds) should be between 1.5V to 50V.

  • The maximum continuous drain current (Id) for the BSS138L is 1.4A, and the maximum pulsed drain current is 4.2A.

  • To protect the BSS138L from ESD, handle the device by the body or use an anti-static wrist strap, and ensure the workspace is ESD-safe.

  • Yes, the BSS138L is suitable for high-frequency switching applications up to 100 kHz, but be aware of the device's switching characteristics and ensure proper PCB layout to minimize parasitic inductance and capacitance.
