Specifications

The JAN2N3584 typically features a collector-emitter breakdown voltage (VCEO) of around 300V, a collector current (IC) rating of approximately 0.5A, and a power dissipation (PD) of around 5W (depending on the specific operating conditions and package). Its current gain (hFE) is typically in the range of 20 to 100. The device is packaged in a hermetically sealed TO-5 or similar through-hole package, ensuring 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. The high breakdown voltage allows it to be used in high voltage applications.

The JAN2N3584's high-reliability screening ensures that it can withstand harsh environmental conditions, making it suitable for aerospace and military applications. The low saturation voltage reduces power dissipation and improves efficiency. The hermetically sealed package protects the device from moisture and other contaminants, extending its lifespan. It is commonly used as a switch or amplifier in a variety of aerospace and military circuits where predictable performance is required over extreme operating environments.
