NTE56 Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The NTE56 is a Silicon NPN Transistor manufactured by NTE Electronics, suitable for high gain switching and pass regulator applications. It offers a collector-emitter voltage rating of 80V and a maximum collector current of 3A.

Key electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) of at least 500 at 0.5A, and a collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(sat)) of 0.5V maximum at 2A. The current gain-bandwidth product (fT) is typically 15MHz.

This transistor is housed in a TO-220 Full Pack package, facilitating efficient heat dissipation. Absolute maximum ratings include a collector power dissipation of 25W at 25°C (TC) and a junction temperature of up to 150°C.
