Overview

The BCX53 is a bipolar made by TWGMC in a SOT-89 package with 3 pins. -55℃~+150℃ 1 PNP 100nA 1A 500mV 500mW 50MHz 5V 63 80V PNP SOT-89 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Transistor_BJT:BCX53, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-89-3, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. 6,278 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C5204760). 6 open-source boards in 5 repositories on GitHub use it.

Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the BCX53?

Yes. The symbol is Transistor_BJT:BCX53 and the footprint Package_TO_SOT_SMD:SOT-89-3, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the BCX53?

SOT-89, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the BCX53 datasheet?

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

Where can I order the BCX53?

JLCPCB lists it as part C5204760, with 6,278 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the BCX53?

Parts like it in the library: the BCX53-16 by hongjiacheng, the B772 by Jiangsu Changjing Electronics Technology (CJ), the BCX56 by Jiangsu Changjing Electronics Technology (CJ) and the BCX53-16,115 by Nexperia. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.

Which open-source boards use the BCX53?

6 boards in 5 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
