JAN2N3735L

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The JAN2N3735L is a military-grade NPN silicon small-signal bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by Microchip Technology. It features a maximum collector current of 1.5 A and a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 40 V. The device is housed in a TO-5 metal can package with through-hole mounting. It operates within a temperature range of -65°C to +200°C and has a maximum power dissipation of 1 W. The component meets MIL-PRF-19500/395 qualification standards.

Single Bipolar Transistors Feature Summary

• Military-grade reliability certified under MIL-PRF-19500/395
• Extended thermal operation capability up to 200°C junction temperature
• High DC current gain of 20 at specified test conditions
• Robust TO-5 hermetic metal can packaging for harsh environments

Single Bipolar Transistors Applications

• Military aerospace electronic systems
• Harsh environment signal processing circuits
• High-reliability amplifier stages
• Switching applications requiring extended temperature tolerance

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision level and lot traceability against the latest manufacturer datasheet before integration. Confirm that the procurement channel provides valid military certification documentation. Ensure storage conditions comply with moisture sensitivity requirements despite the MSL classification. Validate pinout compatibility with existing PCB footprints during the design phase.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when military qualification and high-temperature stability are mandatory. The TO-5 package requires through-hole assembly, which may impact automated manufacturing processes. Consider the 1 W power dissipation limit relative to thermal management constraints in the final enclosure. Verify that the 40 V rating aligns with the circuit's peak voltage requirements.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the 2N3735 family of NPN transistors produced by Microchip Technology. It serves as the qualified military version of the commercial 2N3735 device. The JAN prefix indicates adherence to strict military performance and screening standards. It is distinct from commercial variants due to its enhanced reliability specifications and hermetic sealing.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

The JAN2N3735L is functionally equivalent to the JANTX2N3735L. Both parts share identical electrical characteristics and package dimensions. Substitution between these two levels is generally permissible if the higher reliability tier of the TX variant is acceptable for the application.
