The NTE297 is an NPN silicon bipolar transistor manufactured by NTE Electronics. It is designed for applications such as audio amplifiers and drivers, particularly for 25-30W low-frequency output stages. This transistor offers a high collector-emitter voltage of 80V and a continuous collector current of 500mA, with a peak current capability of 1A.
The device has a power dissipation rating of 1W and an operating junction temperature up to 150°C. Electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 130-220 at 150mA/10V and 50-100 at 500mA/5V. The collector-emitter saturation voltage is a maximum of 0.4V at 300mA/30mA, and the base-emitter saturation voltage is between 0.85V and 1.2V under the same conditions.
With a transition frequency (fT) of 120MHz at 10V/50mA/100MHz and a collector output capacitance (Cob) of 11-20pF at 10V/1MHz, the NTE297 is suitable for various signal amplification tasks. It is packaged in a TO-92 (TO-226-3, TO-92-3) through-hole package, making it easy to integrate into circuit designs.
The NTE297 is RoHS3 compliant, has an MSL of 1, and is REACH unaffected. Its complementary PNP counterpart is the NTE298.
