The 2N3055 is a silicon NPN power transistor intended for general purpose applications. It was introduced in the early 1960s by RCA using a hometaxial power transistor process, transitioned to an epitaxial base in the mid-1970s. [1] Its numbering follows the JEDEC standard. [2] It is a transistor type of enduring popularity. [3] [4] [5]
The 2N3904 is a common NPN bipolar junction transistor used for general-purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications. [1] [2] [3] It is designed for low current and power, medium voltage, and can operate at moderately high speeds. It is complementary to the 2N3906 PNP transistor. Both types were registered by Motorola Semiconductor in ...
SOT: Small-outline transistor (also SOT-23, SOT-223, SOT-323). TO-XX: wide range of small pin count packages often used for discrete parts like transistors or diodes. TO-3: Panel-mount with leads; TO-5: Metal can package with radial leads; TO-18: Metal can package with radial leads; TO-39; TO-46; TO-66: Similar shape to the TO-3 but smaller
In electronics, TO-5 (Transistor Outline 5) is a designation for a standardized metal semiconductor package used for transistors and some integrated circuits. The TO element stands for "transistor outline" and refers to a series of technical drawings produced by JEDEC . [ 1 ]
Listed are many semiconductor scale examples for various metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET, or MOS transistor) semiconductor manufacturing process nodes. Timeline of MOSFET demonstrations
A typical use of these transistors is as a switch for moderate voltages and currents, including as drivers for small lamps, motors, and relays. [1] In switching circuits, these FETs can be used much like bipolar junction transistors, but have some advantages: high input impedance of the insulated gate means almost no gate current is required
The "TO" designation stands for "transistor outline". [2] TO-220 packages have three leads. Similar packages with two, four, five or seven leads are also manufactured. A notable characteristic is a metal tab with a hole, used to mount the case to a heatsink, [3] allowing the component to dissipate more heat than one constructed in a TO-92 case.
The 2N3906 is a commonly used PNP bipolar junction transistor intended for general purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications. [1] [2] It is designed for low electric current and power and medium voltage, and can operate at moderately high speeds. It is complementary to the 2N3904 NPN transistor. [3]
