2N3904BU Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N3904BU is a general-purpose NPN bipolar junction transistor manufactured by On Semiconductor. It features a minimum collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 40V and a maximum collector current of 200mA, making it suitable for low-power switching and amplification applications.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 100 at Ic=10mA and Vce=1V, and a maximum collector-emitter saturation voltage of 300mV at Ib=5mA and Ic=50mA. The device offers a typical transition frequency of 300MHz, supporting moderate-speed switching and signal amplification.

 

Housed in a TO-92-3 through-hole package, this transistor supports an operating junction temperature range of -55°C to 150°C. It is indicated as RoHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, though these compliance statuses have not been independently verified.
