2N3440 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N3440 is a high-frequency, epitaxial planar NPN bipolar junction transistor designed for medium power switching and amplification applications. With a collector-emitter voltage rating of 250V and continuous collector current of 1A, it is suitable for high-voltage line drivers, relay drivers, and general purpose switching circuits. The device features low saturation voltage (Vce(sat) ≤ 0.5V at 50mA) and fast switching speeds (ton ≤ 1µs, toff ≤ 10µs). Power dissipation is 800mW at 25°C ambient, derated linearly to 0W at 200°C, and 5W at 25°C case temperature. The transistor is available in a hermetically sealed TO-39 (TO-205AD) metal can package with through-hole mounting. It is qualified to MIL-PRF-19500/368 for military and high-reliability applications, with JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, and JANS levels available. Commercial grade versions are RoHS compliant. The 2N3440 operates over a junction temperature range of -65°C to 200°C.
