2N4416A TIN/LEAD

Jfets Overview

The Central Semiconductor Corp 2N4416A TIN/LEAD is a silicon N-channel Junction Field-Effect Transistor (JFET) designed for through-hole mounting. It utilizes the TO-92-3 package configuration and operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +150°C. The device features a maximum drain-source breakdown voltage of 25V and a continuous drain current rating of 25mA. Key electrical characteristics include a gate cutoff voltage ranging from -0.5V to -8V and a zero-gate voltage drain current between 0.1µA and 10mA. The component is supplied in bulk packaging with tin/lead plating.

Jfets Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix required for your application, as Central Semiconductor distinguishes between lead-free and tin/lead plated variants. Confirm that the requested plating type matches the design requirements for solderability and regulatory compliance before finalizing the purchase order.

Jfets Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-voltage, low-current N-channel JFET is required for discrete analog designs. Ensure the circuit's operating voltage remains below the 25V breakdown limit and that the gate biasing accommodates the specified negative cutoff voltage range for proper channel control.

Jfets Part Context

This part belongs to the broader family of Central Semiconductor discrete transistors. While similar to other JFETs in the portfolio, the 2N4416A is specifically characterized for its particular breakdown and current parameters. It serves as a specialized alternative to general-purpose FETs in precision analog front-end applications.

Jfets Replacement Considerations

Publicly confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter overlaps with potential alternatives such as the 2N5457 or 2N5458 before implementation.
