BC338

BC337, BC338 Small Signal Transistors (NPN) TO-92 .181 (4.6) .142 (3.6) min..492 (12.5) .181 (4.6) max.∅ .022 (0.55) .098 (2.5) CE B Dimensions in inches and (millimeters) FEATURES ♦ NPN Silicon Epitaxial Planar Transistors for switching and amplifier applications. Especially suitable for AF-driver stages and low power output stages. ♦ These types are also available subdi- vided into three groups -16, -25, and -40, according to their DC current gain. As complementary types, the PNP transistors BC327 and BC328 are recommended. ♦ On special request, these transistors are also manufactured in the pin configuration TO-18.
