Overview
The Central Semiconductor Corp 2N2060M is a silicon dual NPN transistor featuring two individual chips mounted in a hermetically sealed metal TO-78 case. Designed for differential amplifier applications, it provides matched electrical characteristics between its two elements. Key maximum ratings include a collector-base voltage of 100 V, a collector-emitter voltage of 60 V, and a continuous collector current of 500 mA. The device supports an operating junction temperature range from -65 to +200 °C. Power dissipation reaches 3.0 W per die at a case temperature of 25 °C. The component exhibits a transition frequency of 60 MHz and low leakage currents.
Feature Summary
- Hermetically sealed metal construction ensures high reliability and environmental protection
- Dual NPN configuration with tightly matched hFE and VBE parameters for precision differential circuits
- Wide thermal operating range suitable for demanding industrial environments
Applications
- Differential amplifier stages
- Precision analog signal processing
- High-reliability military or aerospace electronics
Procurement Notes
This component has been officially classified as End of Life (EOL) by the manufacturer. No replacement part numbers are currently available within the Central Semiconductor portfolio. Procurement must rely on existing stock or secondary market sources. Verify authenticity and physical condition carefully due to the discontinued status.
Selection Notes
Select this component only when hermetic sealing and matched dual-transistor performance are mandatory requirements. It is suitable for designs requiring wide temperature stability and high reliability. Engineers should evaluate alternative non-hermetic packages if EOL status prevents sourcing.
Part Context
The 2N2060M belongs to the legacy 2N-series discrete transistors manufactured by Central Semiconductor Corp. These devices were historically standard in high-reliability sectors. The specific TO-78 package variant is now discontinued, reflecting a shift away from hermetic metal cans in favor of modern plastic surface-mount technologies.
Replacement Considerations
No direct replacement part numbers are listed in the official discontinuation notice. Alternative sourcing requires identifying functionally equivalent dual NPN transistors in hermetic packages from other manufacturers.
