2N4898 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N4898 is a PNP Silicon Medium Power Transistor manufactured by Motorola Semiconductor. This series offers devices with Collector-Emitter Voltage (VCEO) ratings ranging from 40V to 80V, and a continuous Collector Current (IC) capability of up to 4.0A. The transistors are housed in a TO-66 package, suitable for through-hole mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a DC Current Gain (hFE) of up to 100, a Collector Emitter Saturation Voltage (VCE(sat)) of 0.6V maximum, and a Base Emitter Saturation Voltage (VBE(sat)) of 1.3V maximum. The current gain-bandwidth product (fT) is a minimum of 3.0 MHz, and the output capacitance (Cob) is a maximum of 100 pF.

 

These transistors are designed for medium power applications. The operating and storage junction temperature range is -65 to +200 °C. The device is available in non-RoHS (Sn/Pb plating) and RoHS compliant versions.
