BS170PSTOB Equivalent & Substitute Parts Reference
Part Overview
The BS170PSTOB from Diodes Incorporated is an N-Channel MOSFET with a drain-to-source voltage of 60 V and a continuous drain current of 270 mA (Ta). It offers a through-hole mounting style in an E-Line (TO-92 compatible) package, supporting a maximum power dissipation of 625 mW. This product is currently marked as obsolete, necessitating the identification and use of equivalent and substitute models to maintain supply continuity and ensure ongoing support in existing designs.
