BD791 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The BD791 is an NPN power bipolar junction transistor manufactured by Motorola Semicondutor. It is designed for general-purpose switching and amplification applications requiring up to 100V collector-emitter voltage and 4A continuous collector current, with a power dissipation of 15W.

 

Electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) of 40 minimum at 200mA collector current and 3V Vce, and a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 3V maximum at 800mA base current and 4A collector current. The transistor has a transition frequency of 40MHz, suitable for moderate-speed switching circuits.

 

The BD791 is offered in a through-hole TO-225AA package (also known as TO-126-3) with a supplier device package of TO-225-3. It operates over a junction temperature range of -65°C to 150°C, allowing use in demanding environments.
