About this manual

The Fairchild BS170 and MMBF170 are N‑Channel enhancement mode field‑effect transistors designed for low‑voltage, low‑current applications such as small servo motor control and MOSFET gate drivers. They feature a high‑density DMOS cell design that minimizes on‑state resistance while providing rugged and fast switching performance.

The document provides absolute maximum ratings, detailed electrical characteristics, thermal behavior, switching times, and package dimensions for both the TO‑92 (BS170) and SOT‑23 (MMBF170) versions. It also includes tape‑and‑reel data, trademark information, and product status definitions.
