Philips Semiconductors Product specification
NPN general purpose transistors BCY87; BCY88; BCY89
FEATURES
• Low current (max. 30 mA)
• Low voltage (max. 45 V).
APPLICATIONS
• Differential amplifier applications in general industrial
service e.g. instrumentation and control
• The BCY87 and BCY88 are intended for use in
pre-stages of differential amplifiers where low offset, low
drift and low noise are of prime importance
• The BCY89 is intended for use in second stages of
differential amplifiers, long-tailed pairs and more general
applications.
DESCRIPTION
Matched dual NPN transistors in a TO-71; SOT31 metal
package. Products are divided into 3 types according to
their matching accuracy.
