KSC2334YTU

Single Bipolar Transistors Overview

The KSC2334YTU is an NPN epitaxial silicon bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by onsemi. It features a TO-220-3 through-hole package designed for high-power applications. Key electrical specifications include a maximum collector current of 7 A, a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 100 V, and a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of 150 V. The device supports a power dissipation of 40 W at +25°C and operates up to a maximum junction temperature of +150°C. DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 40 to 240, with a typical collector-emitter saturation voltage of 600 mV.

Single Bipolar Transistors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TU' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm tape-and-reel packaging details, as the provided reference data primarily lists the bulk variant 'KSC2334Y'. Ensure the component meets RoHS compliance requirements for your assembly process. Cross-reference the part number with onsemi's current production status to avoid obsolete stock issues.

Single Bipolar Transistors Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current NPN transistor with moderate voltage ratings is required in a TO-220 package. Consider the 7 A continuous collector current and 40 W power dissipation limits relative to your thermal management strategy. Verify that the hFE range of 40–240 aligns with your base drive circuit design requirements.

Single Bipolar Transistors Part Context

This part belongs to the KSC2334 series of NPN epitaxial planar transistors. These devices are engineered for general-purpose amplification and switching tasks. The series typically offers a balance of high current capacity and reliable performance in standard through-hole packages, making them common in industrial and consumer electronics power stages.

Single Bipolar Transistors Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes such as the KSC2334Y (bulk package) if reel packaging is not critical. Other equivalent NPN power transistors with similar 7A/100V ratings in TO-220 packages may be considered, but pinout and thermal characteristics must be verified.
