RN2314(TE85L,F)

Overview

The RN2314(TE85L,F) is a pre-biased NPN digital transistor manufactured by Toshiba Semiconductor and Storage. It integrates a single NPN bipolar junction transistor with an internal bias resistor network within a compact surface-mount package. The device is designed to simplify circuit design by reducing the component count required for switching and driver applications. Key electrical characteristics include a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 50V and a continuous collector current rating of 100mA. The unit features a typical input resistance value that facilitates direct interfacing with logic gates, ensuring reliable operation in low-power digital circuits while maintaining a small physical footprint suitable for space-constrained designs.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a single NPN transistor with built-in bias resistors to minimize external components
• Designed for simplified switching, inverter, and interface circuit applications
• Utilizes a compact surface-mount package to reduce board space and assembly costs

Applications

• Switching circuits for low-power digital logic interfaces
• Inverter circuits requiring minimal external components

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific internal resistor values and hFE gain ranges against the official Toshiba datasheet prior to implementation, as these parameters define the switching performance. Confirm the package type matches the PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the ordering suffix corresponds to the desired tape and reel configuration for automated assembly processes.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single NPN switching element with integrated base biasing is required. Compare the internal resistance values against the driving source impedance to ensure adequate base current. Evaluate the power dissipation limits relative to the expected duty cycle and ambient temperature conditions to maintain safe operating area compliance during continuous operation.

Part Context

This part belongs to Toshiba's RN series of pre-biased transistors, which are engineered to replace discrete transistor-resistor combinations. The TE85L suffix typically indicates a specific tape-and-reel packaging format intended for high-volume automated surface-mount technology (SMT) production lines, distinguishing it from cut-tape or bulk packaging variants.
