Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '-O' to confirm the DC current gain ranking of 70 to 140, as other ranks exist. Confirm the presence of the '-TP' designation indicates tape and reel packaging containing 2500 pieces per reel. Ensure the component matches the DPAK outline dimensions provided in the datasheet to avoid counterfeit or incorrect variant substitution.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-voltage NPN transistor with moderate current handling is required for driver stages. The DPAK package provides adequate thermal performance for 1.0 W dissipation. Verify that the 70 to 140 hFE range meets circuit biasing requirements, noting that higher gain variants are available under different suffixes.
