2N3055A (NPN),
MJ15015 (NPN),
MJ15016 (PNP)
MJ15015 and MJ15016 are Preferred Devices
Complementary Silicon
High−Power Transistors
These PowerBaset complementary transistors are designed for
high power audio, stepping motor and other linear applications. These
devices can also be used in power switching circuits such as relay or
solenoid drivers, dc−to−dc converters, inverters, or for inductive loads
requiring higher safe operating area than the 2N3055.
Features
• Current−Gain − Bandwidth−Product @ I
fT= 0.8 MHz (Min) − NPN
= 2.2 MHz (Min) − PNP
• Safe Operating Area − Rated to 60 V and 120 V, Respectively
• Pb−Free Packages are Available*
