Motorola Bipolar Power Transistor Device Data
SWITCHMODE
NPN Bipolar Power Transistor
For Switching Power Supply Applications
The BUL147/BUL147F have an applications specific state–of–the–art die designed
for use in electric fluorescent lamp ballasts to 180 Watts and in Switchmode Power
supplies for a ll types of electronic e quipment. These h igh–voltage/high–speed
transistors offer the following:
• Improved Efficiency Due to Low Base Drive Requirements:
— High and Flat DC Current Gain
— Fast Switching
— No Coil Required in Base Circuit for Turn–Off (No Current Tail)
• Parametric Distributions are Tight and Consistent Lot–to–Lot
• Two Package Choices: Standard TO–220 or Isolated TO–220
• BUL147F, Isolated Case 221D, is UL Recognized to 3500 V
