STBV32
NPN POWER TRANSISTOR
DESCRIPTION
The device is manufactured using high voltage
TO-92
Multi Epitaxial Planar technology for high
switchingspeeds andmedium voltage capability.
It uses a Cellular Emitter structure with planar
edge termination to enhance switching speeds
while maintainingthe wide RBSOA.
The STBV32 is designed for use in compact
