NTE176 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The NTE176 is a Germanium PNP transistor manufactured by NTE Electronics, suitable for audio power amplifier applications. It is housed in a TO-39 metal can package and supports through-hole mounting.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a continuous collector current (IC) of 2A and a total power dissipation (PC) of 6W at 25°C. The transistor exhibits a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 40 to 75 at 2A, and a transition frequency (fT) of up to 1.2MHz. Its collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCEsat) is typically 0.25V at 2A collector current and 200mA base current.

 

Absolute maximum ratings specify a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of 20V and an emitter-base voltage (VEBO) of 10V. The operating junction temperature (TJ) is rated up to 85°C, with a storage temperature range from -55°C to +85°C.

 

This component is designed for through-hole mounting and comes in a TO-205AD, TO-39-3 Metal Can package.
