2N2905 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N2905 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Rectron Semiconductor, suitable for high-speed switching and general-purpose driver applications. It is housed in a TO-39 metal package.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-base voltage (VCBO) of 60V and a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 40V for the 2N2905 variant and 60V for the 2N2905A. The continuous collector current (IC) is rated up to 600mA, with a peak collector current (ICM) of 800mA. The DC current gain (hFE) ranges from 100 to 300 at IC = -150mA and VCE = -10V. The transition frequency (fT) is 200MHz at IC = -50mA and VCE = -20V.

 

Thermal specifications include a total power dissipation of 600mW at an ambient temperature of 25°C and 3W when the case temperature is at 25°C. The junction temperature can reach up to 200°C, with storage temperatures ranging from -65°C to +150°C.

 

This transistor is designed for applications requiring fast switching speeds and moderate current handling capabilities. Its TO-39 package is suitable for through-hole mounting.
