High-Voltage Transistor Arrays
The CA3146A, CA3146, CA3183A, and CA3183 are general
purpose high voltage silicon NPN transistor arrays on a
common monolithic substrate.
TypesCA3146AandCA3146 consist of five transistors with two
of the transistors connected to form a differentially connected
pair.These types are recommended for low power applications
in the DC through VHF range.(CA3146A and CA3146 are high
voltage versions of the popularpredecessor type CA3046.)
Types CA3183A and CA3183 consist of five high current
transistors with independent connections for each transistor.
In addition two of these transistors (Q
and Q2) are matched
1
at low current (i.e., 1mA) for applications where offset
parameters are of special importance. A special substrate
terminal is also included for greater flexibility in circuit
design. (CA3183A and CA3183 are high voltage versions of
the popular predecessor type CA3083.)
The types with an “A” suffix are premium versions of their
non-“A” counterparts and feature tighter control of
breakdown voltages making them more suitable for higher
voltage applications.
For detailed application information, see companion
Application Note AN5296 “Application of the CA3018
Integrated Circuit Transistor Array.”

CAUTION: Stresses above those listed in “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. This is a stress only rating and operation of the
device at these or any other conditions above those indicated in the operational sections of this specification is not implied.
NOTES:
1. The collector of each transistor is isolated from the substrate by an integral diode. The substrate must be connected to a voltage which is more
negative than any collector voltage in order to maintain isolation between transistors, and to provide for normal transistor action. To avoid
undesired coupling between transistors, the substrate terminal should be maintained at either DC or signal (AC) ground. A suitable bypass
capacitor can be used to establish a signal ground.
2. θ JA is measured with the component mounted on an evaluation PC board in free air.
3. Care must be taken to avoid exceeding the maximum junction temperature. Use the total power dissipation (all transistors) and thermal
resistances to calculate the junction temperature.
