BC549

BC546 THRU BC549 Small Signal Transistors (NPN) TO-92 .181 (4.6) min. .492 (12.5) .181 (4.6) .142 (3.6) ♦ NPN Silicon Epitaxial Planar Transistors ♦ These transistors are subdivided into three groups A, B and C according to their current gain. The type BC546 is available in groups A and B, however, the types BC547 and BC548 can be supplied in all three groups. The BC549 is a low-noise type and available in groups B and C. As complementary types, the PNP transistors BC556 … BC559 are recommended. FEATURES max. ∅ .022 (0.55) .098 (2.5) C B E ♦ On special request, these transistors are also manufactured in the pin configuration TO-18.
