MPSA42 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MPSA42 is an NPN silicon planar high voltage transistor designed for applications requiring high voltage handling. It offers a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 300V and a continuous collector current (IC) of up to 500mA.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(sat)) of 0.5V at 20mA collector current and 2mA base current, and a static forward current transfer ratio (hFE) ranging from 25 to 40 depending on the collector current. The transition frequency (fT) is 50MHz at 10mA collector current and 20V collector-emitter voltage.

 

This transistor is suitable for applications such as telephone dialler circuits. It is supplied in a TO-92 compatible package, designed for through-hole mounting.

 

Absolute maximum ratings include a power dissipation of 680mW at 25°C ambient temperature and an operating and storage temperature range of -55°C to +175°C.
