DESCRIPTION
This family of 2N3506 through 2N3507A high-frequency, epitaxial planar transistors feature
low saturation voltage. These devices are also available in TO-5 and low profile U4
packaging. Microsemi also offers numerous other transistor products to meet higher and
lower power ratings with various switching speed requirements in both through-hole and
surface-mount packages.
