Additional Details:

The 2SA1413-AZ-K has a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of -60V, a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -50V, and an emitter-base voltage (VEBO) of -5V. The collector current (IC) is -1A. The power dissipation (PC) is 1.2W. The current gain (hFE) is typically in the range of 100-320 (for the AZ rank). The saturation voltage (VCE(sat)) is low, minimizing power losses during switching. The transition frequency (fT) is relatively high, enabling high-speed switching performance. The TO-126 package provides good thermal characteristics. This transistor is often used in audio amplifier output stages, DC-DC converters, and other general-purpose amplification and switching applications. The operating junction temperature range is typically -55°C to +150°C. Being complementary to the 2SC3602 NPN transistor, it allows for symmetrical push-pull amplifier designs.
