2N4208 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N4208 is a PNP bipolar junction transistor manufactured by On Semiconductor. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications requiring low to moderate current and voltage.

 

Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter voltage (Vceo) of 12V, a collector current (Ic) of 50mA, and a power dissipation (Pd) of 300mW. The DC current gain (hFE) is a minimum of 30 at Ic=10mA and Vce=300mV, and the collector-emitter saturation voltage (Vce sat) is a maximum of 130mV at Ib=100µA and Ic=1mA.

 

The transistor is housed in a TO-206AA / TO-18-3 metal can package and is designed for through-hole mounting. The supplier device package is TO-18. This package offers robust mechanical protection and good thermal performance for its power rating.
