2SB14400RL

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The Panasonic 2SB14400RL is a silicon PNP epitaxial planar transistor designed for low-frequency output amplification. It operates with a collector-emitter voltage of -50V and a continuous collector current of -2A, dissipating up to 1W of power in a MiniP3-F1 package. The device features a transition frequency of 150MHz and a forward current transfer ratio ranging from 60 to 340 depending on the rank classification.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lifecycle status before procurement as this component may be classified under maintenance or discontinued categories. Confirm that the MiniP3-F1 package dimensions align with existing board layouts. Ensure design compliance with absolute maximum ratings to prevent failure during transient states such as power-on or mode-switching.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring high current handling at low frequencies. Consider the complementary relationship with the 2SD2185 NPN transistor for push-pull configurations. Evaluate thermal management requirements given the 1W dissipation limit and the necessity of a copper foil area of at least 1 cm² for optimal performance.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the Panasonic discrete semiconductor product line, specifically within the bipolar junction transistor category. It is engineered for standard industrial and consumer electronics rather than specialized automotive or aerospace environments. The MiniP3-F1 package provides a compact footprint suitable for space-constrained designs.
