2N2222 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Thomson-CSF 2N2222 is an NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for both linear amplification and switching applications. It is housed in a standard TO-18 metal package, making it suitable for through-hole mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector current of 800 mA and a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 30 V. The transistor exhibits a DC current gain (hFE) of at least 75 at 10 mA collector current and 10 V collector-emitter voltage. Its transition frequency (fT) is rated at a minimum of 250 MHz under specific test conditions.

 

Thermal considerations include a total power dissipation of up to 500 mW at 25 °C ambient temperature, with a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 350 K/W. The operating and storage temperature range is from -65 °C to 150 °C.

 

This transistor is a complementary part to the 2N2907A PNP transistor. Its robust design and specifications make it a versatile component for various electronic circuits.
