Key Features
- Transistor Type: NPN - This type of transistor is commonly used for amplification and switching.
- Collector-Emitter Voltage (VCEO): 40V - This rating indicates the maximum voltage the transistor can handle between its collector and emitter terminals when the base is open.
- Collector-Base Voltage (VCBO): 75V - This is the maximum voltage that can be applied between the collector and base terminals without causing damage, when the emitter is open.
- Emitter-Base Voltage (VEBO): 6V - The maximum voltage that can be applied between the emitter and base terminals.
- Collector Current (IC): 600 mA - The maximum continuous current that can flow through the collector of the transistor.
- Power Dissipation (Pd): 625 mW - The amount of power that the transistor can dissipate without exceeding its maximum operating temperature.
- DC Current Gain (hFE): 100 to 300 - This parameter provides the ratio of the collector current to the base current, indicating the transistor's amplification capability.
- Operating and Storage Junction Temperature Range: -55°C to +150°C - Ensures reliable operation across a wide range of temperatures.
