NTE88
Description
The NTE87 (NPN) and NTE88 (PNP) are complementary silicon power transistors in a TO3 type package designed for high power audio, disk head positioners, and other linear applications. These devices can also be used in power switching circuits such as relay or solenoid drivers, DC-to-DC converters or inverters.
Key Features
- High Safe Operating Area: 1.2A @ 100V
- Completely Characterized for Linear Operation
- High DC Current Gain: hFE = 20 Min @ IC = 2A
- Low Saturation Voltage: 2V
- For Low Distortion Complementry Designs Note
- Matched complementary pairs are available upon request (NTE88MCP). Matched complementary pairs have their gain specification (hFE) matched to within 10% of each other. Note
- Pulse Test: Pulse Width = 5ms, Duty Cycle ≤ 10%.
