MJ2955 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The STMicroelectronics MJ2955 is a PNP silicon epitaxial-base planar transistor housed in a TO-3 metal case. It is engineered for applications such as power switching circuits, series and shunt regulators, output stages, and high-fidelity amplifiers.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 60V and a maximum collector current (IC) of 15A. The device can handle a total power dissipation (Ptot) of 115W at temperatures up to 25°C. The operating junction temperature (Tj) can reach up to 200°C, with storage temperatures ranging from -65°C to 200°C.

 

This transistor is designed for robust performance in demanding power applications. Its complementary NPN type is the 2N3055. The TO-3 package is suitable for chassis mounting, facilitating efficient heat dissipation in power circuits.

 

Electrical specifications include a VCE(sat) of 3V at 3.3A/10A and a minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 20 at 4A/4V. The transition frequency (fT) is 3MHz at 0.5A/10V.
