Key Features

• Transistor Polarity: PNP - Suitable for providing amplification and switching with a low collector-emitter saturation voltage.
• Collector-Emitter Voltage (VCEO): 30V - This parameter indicates the maximum voltage the transistor can withstand from the collector to the emitter when the base is open.
• Collector Current (IC): 100mA - The maximum continuous current that can flow through the collector of the transistor.
• Power Dissipation (Pd): 250mW - The amount of power the transistor can dissipate without exceeding its maximum operating temperature.
• DC Current Gain (hFE): 200 to 450 - A measure of the transistor's ability to amplify the current, indicating efficiency and gain consistency.
• Operating Temperature Range: -55°C to +150°C - Ensures reliable operation over a wide range of environmental conditions.
• Package / Case: SOT-23-3 - A small and convenient surface-mount package that is widely used in electronic designs for its compact footprint.
