2N3738 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N3738 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Microchip Technology. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications requiring a collector-emitter breakdown voltage (Vceo) of 225V and a collector current (Ic) rating of 1A. With a power dissipation (Pd) of 20W, this transistor can handle moderate power levels in various circuit designs.

 

The device is housed in a TO-66 (TO-213AA) through-hole package, which provides robust mechanical support and efficient heat dissipation. The through-hole mounting type ensures compatibility with traditional PCB assembly processes.

 

This transistor is suitable for applications such as power management, motor control, and linear regulators where PNP polarity and high voltage capability are required. The MSL (Moisture Sensitivity Level) is rated as 1 (Unlimited), indicating no special handling precautions for moisture sensitivity.
