Small-outline transistor
Family of discrete surface mount transistors From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Remove ads
A small outline transistor (SOT) is a family of small footprint, discrete surface mount transistor commonly used in consumer electronics. The most common SOT are SOT23 variations,.[1] SOT23-5 differs from SOT23 in a wider body of 1.6 mm (0.063 in) instead of 1.3 mm (0.051 in). Also, manufacturers offer the nearly identical thin small outline transistor (TSOT/TSOP) package, where lower height is important.[2][3][4][5]

SOT490
SOT89-3
The SOT89-3 electrically only has three leads (contact/pin). The wide lead (tab) is physically part of the middle lead on the other side of the package. Some call this package a SOT89-4, since it visually appears to have four leads when looking down at the part.

SOT89-5
The SOT89-5 electrically only has five leads (contact/pin). The middle lead is physically part of the middle lead on the other side of the package. Some call this package a SOT89-6, since it visually appears to have six leads when looking down at the part.
SOT223 (SOT223-4)
The SOT223-4 package is a popular package for voltage regulators. It was introduced by Philips.[32]
SOT223-5
The SOT223-5 package is a popular package for voltage regulators.
SOT223-8
The SOT223-8 package is a popular package for bridged quad transistors.
