2N3829 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N3829 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) manufactured by Texas Instruments, suitable for amplification and switching applications. It is housed in a TO-18 case.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a Collector-Emitter Breakdown Voltage (BV CEO) of 35V and a Collector-Base Breakdown Voltage (BV CBO) of 20V. The Emitter-Base Breakdown Voltage (BVEBO) is 5.0V. The device exhibits a maximum Collector Cut-off Current (ICBO) of 0.3 µA at Vcb = 20V. The DC Current Gain (hFE) is a minimum of 20 at IC = 0.1 mA. The Collector-Emitter Saturation Voltage (VCE(SAT)) is a maximum of 0.4V at IC = 30 mA and IB = 0.4 mA.

 

Additional specifications include an Output Capacitance (Cob) of up to 30 pF, a Transition Frequency (fT) of at least 6.0 MHz, and a Noise Figure (NF) of up to 3.5 dB. The turn-on time (ton) is a maximum of 350 ns, and the turn-off time (toff) is a maximum of 65 ns.

 

This transistor is designed for general-purpose amplification and switching tasks within its specified operating parameters. Its TO-18 packaging is suitable for through-hole mounting.
