Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffixes against official documentation to ensure correct configuration. Confirm that the '-AP' designation corresponds to the required ammo packing format. Ensure compliance with RoHS standards if applicable. Purchase only from authorized distributors to guarantee authenticity and traceability. Check for halogen-free requirements by verifying the presence of the '-HF' suffix if needed.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when low noise and high-frequency performance are critical. The Y rank provides a DC current gain between 100 and 200. Consider the TO-92S package constraints for thermal management and board space. Verify that the 20 mA continuous current rating meets the circuit load requirements.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the 2SC2668 series of NPN transistors manufactured by Micro Commercial Components. The series includes variants distinguished by hFE ranking (R, O, Y) and packaging options. These devices are engineered for general-purpose high-frequency amplification tasks within the specified voltage and current limits.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 2SC2668 variants such as 2SC2668-R or 2SC2668-O, provided the hFE binning aligns with design needs. Cross-brand replacements must match the TO-92S footprint and electrical parameters like fT and VCBO.

Single Bipolar Transistors FAQ

What does the 'Y' suffix indicate for this transistor?

The 'Y' suffix specifies the DC current gain (hFE) classification, which ranges from 100 to 200 under standard test conditions.

What is the maximum collector-base breakdown voltage?

The maximum collector-base breakdown voltage (V(BR)CBO) is 40 V when the emitter current is 0 and collector current is 100 μA.

How is the device packaged in the -AP version?

The -AP suffix indicates that the device is supplied in ammo packing, typically containing 30,000 pieces per carton.
