• Custom power module assembly
• Specialized semiconductor component fabrication

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific packaging suffix required for your production line, such as CT for singulated die in waffle packs or WR for sawn wafers on plastic rings. Confirm plating options like Tin/Lead or Lead-Free if applicable. Ensure design compatibility with the bare die mechanical specifications before ordering.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a bare die form factor is necessary for custom packaging or high-density integration. Consider the 300 V rating and 500 mA current capacity against your thermal management requirements. Evaluate the TO-92 equivalent performance if transitioning from packaged devices to bare die solutions.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part is a bare die version of the MPSA42 family, offering the same electrical profile as the packaged transistor but without the encapsulation. It allows designers to utilize the die in custom substrates or hybrid circuits. The die size is 26 x 26 mils with a thickness of 9.0 mils.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Direct bare die replacements are limited. Equivalent packaged parts include the MPSA42. Verify that the target application can accommodate bare die mounting techniques and wire bonding requirements instead of standard through-hole or surface mount packages.
