*These ratings are limiting values above which the serviceability of any semiconductor device may be impaired.
NOTES:
1) These ratings are based on a maximum junction temperature of 150 degrees C.
2) These are steady state limits. The factory should be consulted on applications involving pulsed or low duty cycle operations.

Packaging Description:
TO-92 parts are shipped normally in tape. These reeled
parts in standard option are shipped with 2,000 units per
14” or 355.6cm diameter reel. This and some other options
are further described in the Packaging Information
table.These full reels are individually barcode labeled and
placed inside a standard intermediate box (illustrated in
figure 1.0) made of rec yclable corrugated brown paper.
One box contains one reel maximum. And these boxes
are placed inside a barcode labeled shipping box which
comes in different sizes depending on the number of parts
shipped.
