Single Bipolar Transistors Applications

• Power amplifier circuits
• Driver-stage amplifiers

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify RoHS compatibility status directly with Toshiba sales representatives, as markings indicate potential variations between standard and environmentally compliant versions. Confirm the specific hFE binning (O or Y) required for your circuit design against the datasheet classifications. Ensure the TO-92MOD package dimensions align with your PCB footprint requirements before finalizing procurement.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when designing general electronics applications requiring a high-voltage PNP transistor with moderate current handling capabilities. The complementary relationship with the 2SC2235 makes it suitable for balanced amplifier stages. Verify that the operating conditions remain within the absolute maximum ratings to maintain reliability, particularly regarding power dissipation derating at elevated temperatures.
