2N5885 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The 2N5885 from RCA is a silicon NPN power transistor designed for power linear and switching applications. It features a robust TO-3 package, making it suitable for demanding environments.

 

Key electrical specifications include a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 60V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 25A. The device can handle peak collector currents up to 50A and has a maximum power dissipation of 200W at 25℃ case temperature. Thermal characteristics include a low junction-to-case thermal resistance of 0.875℃/W.

 

This transistor is a complement to the 2N5883 and 2N5884 types. Its characteristics, such as a typical DC current gain (hFE) of 35 at 3A and a transition frequency (fT) of 4MHz, make it suitable for various power applications. The switching times, including rise, storage, and fall times, are also specified for performance evaluation in switching circuits.
