Specifications

The JAN2N2369A typically features a collector-emitter breakdown voltage (VCEO) of 15V, a collector current (IC) of 0.2A, and a power dissipation of approximately 0.36W (depending on package and temperature conditions). Its DC current gain (hFE) is typically in the range of 20 to 100. The device is packaged in a hermetically sealed TO-18 or similar through-hole package, providing environmental protection and long-term stability. The operating junction temperature range is typically from -65°C to +200°C. The saturation voltage is low, minimizing power loss in switching applications. It has a very fast switching time, suitable for high speed applications.

The JAN2N2369A's high-reliability screening ensures that it can withstand harsh environmental conditions, making it suitable for aerospace and military applications. The hermetically sealed package protects the device from moisture and other contaminants, extending its lifespan. The low saturation voltage reduces power dissipation and improves efficiency. Because of its high speed switching capabilities and ruggedness, it is an excellent solution for high speed switching applications requiring long-term reliability.
