NTE323 (PNP) & NTE324 (NPN)
Silicon Complementary Transistors
General Purpose
Description:
The NTE323 (PNP) and NTE324 (NPN) are complementary silicon epitaxial planer transistors in a
TO39 type package designed for use as drivers for high power transistors in general purpose amplifier
and switching circuits.
