Overview

The BD138 is a bipolar made by STMicroelectronics in a SOT-32-3 package with 3 pins. -65℃~+150℃ 1 PNP 1.5A 10uA 12.5W 25 500mV 5V 60V PNP SOT-32-3 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:BD138, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-126-3_Vertical, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. 384 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C283423).

Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BD138?

Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BD138 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_THT:TO-126-3_Vertical, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BD138?

SOT-32-3, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the BD138 datasheet?

STMicroelectronics publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the BD138?

JLCPCB lists it as part C283423, with 384 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the BD138?

Parts like it in the library: the BD139 by STMicroelectronics, the BD139-16 by STMicroelectronics, the BD237 by Jiangsu Changjing Electronics Technology (CJ) and the BD139 by onsemi. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
