The Central Semiconductor Corp 2N5878 PBFREE is a silicon NPN power transistor housed in a TO-3 metal can package. It features a collector-base voltage of 100V, a collector-emitter voltage of 150V, and a continuous collector current rating of 15A. The device has a maximum power dissipation of 150W at 25°C ambient temperature. Lead configuration includes Base (Pin 1), Emitter (Pin 2), and Case as Collector.
This component is classified as End of Life (EOL) by the manufacturer. Orders are restricted to available inventory only. Verify stock availability directly with authorized distributors or sales representatives before finalizing procurement plans.
Select this part for high-current applications requiring a TO-3 package. Ensure adequate heatsinking is provided to maintain junction temperatures within limits given the 150W dissipation rating. Confirm that the 150V VCEO meets circuit requirements.
The 2N5878 belongs to a series of high-power NPN transistors from Central Semiconductor. It shares the TO-3 mechanical form factor with similar devices like the 2N5875 through 2N5877, differing primarily in breakdown voltage and current specifications.
No official replacement part numbers are listed in the manufacturer's PDN01250 notice. Contact Central Semiconductor support for potential alternate sourcing options.
