2N4427 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N4427 is a silicon NPN epitaxial planar RF transistor designed for high frequency amplifier applications. It is manufactured by Microsemi Corporation and housed in a hermetically sealed TO-39 metal can package.

 

Key electrical specifications include a maximum collector-base voltage of 40V, collector-emitter voltage of 20V, and continuous collector current of 400mA. The device offers a minimum transition frequency of 500MHz at VCE=15V and IC=50mA, making it suitable for RF amplification up to VHF/UHF bands. DC current gain ranges from 10 to 200 at VCE=5V and IC=100mA.

 

The transistor is mounted in a through-hole TO-205AD/TO-39-3 package with lead configuration emitter, base, collector. Power dissipation is rated at 1.0W at 25°C ambient and 3.5W at 25°C case temperature. Operating junction temperature range is -65°C to +200°C.
