Additional Details

The 2SD1695 is typically packaged in a TO-251 or TO-252 package. When using this transistor, it is vital to consult the datasheet for its absolute maximum ratings, including collector-emitter voltage (VCEO), collector current (IC), and power dissipation (PD). Proper heat sinking is recommended when operating at or near its maximum power rating. The DC current gain (hFE) is an important parameter for amplifier design. Always refer to the manufacturer's datasheet for detailed specifications and application guidelines to ensure optimal performance and prevent damage to the component or the circuit.
