Overview
The Central Semiconductor Corp 2N6290 PBFREE is an NPN silicon power transistor manufactured using the epitaxial base process. It features a collector-emitter voltage rating of 50 V and a continuous collector current capacity of 7.0 A. The device supports a maximum power dissipation of 40 W at 25°C case temperature, with a thermal resistance of 3.13 °C/W. It operates within a junction temperature range of -65 to +150 °C and utilizes a TO-220 package.
Feature Summary
- Epitaxial base construction for robust power handling
- Designed for general purpose power amplifier applications
- Suitable for high-speed switching circuits
Applications
- Power amplifier circuits
- General purpose switching applications
Procurement Notes
Verify compliance with RoHS directives by confirming the PBFREE suffix indicates lead-free plating as per manufacturer specifications. Check for End-of-Life status notifications from Central Semiconductor, as this component may be discontinued or available only in limited stock quantities. Ensure ordering documentation explicitly requests the correct plating type if tin/lead is required instead of standard lead-free options.
Selection Notes
Select this component for designs requiring an NPN power transistor with a 50 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage and 7 A continuous current capability. Consider the TO-220 package dimensions and thermal resistance when designing heat sinking solutions. Verify that the complementary PNP counterpart (2N6109) meets system requirements for push-pull configurations.
Part Context
This part belongs to a series of complementary silicon power transistors manufactured by Central Semiconductor Corp. The 2N6290 serves as the NPN complement to the 2N6109 PNP transistor. Both devices share similar structural characteristics and are intended for use in matched pairs within power amplifier and switching circuit topologies.
Replacement Considerations
Central Semiconductor has classified the 2N6290 as End of Life (EOL). No suggested replacement part numbers are provided in official notices. Contact the manufacturer directly for assistance in locating alternate sources.
