2N4401 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N4401 is a general-purpose NPN bipolar junction transistor designed for signal processing, switching, and amplification applications. It features a collector-emitter voltage (Vceo) of 40V, a continuous collector current of 600mA, and a power dissipation of 625mW. The DC current gain (hFE) is typically 100 at 150mA, 1V, with a maximum of 300. The transistor offers a gain bandwidth product of 250MHz, making it suitable for low to medium frequency circuits. The device is housed in a TO-92 through-hole package (TO-226-3) and is RoHS and REACH compliant. It is a complementary pair to the 2N4403 PNP transistor. Typical applications include signal amplification, switching circuits, and general-purpose electronic designs.
