Description
PNP Silicon Epitaxial Planar Transistor for switching and AF amplifier application.
These transistors are subdivided into three groups A, B and C according to their current gain.
Functions :
· Low current (max. 100 mA)
· Low voltage (max. -65 V).
Absolute Maximum Ratings
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended. In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability. The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only. Values are at TA = 25°C unless otherwise noted.
APPLICATIONS
· General purpose switching and amplification.
