Technical Specifications
The 2SB646 typically features a collector-base voltage (VCBO) of -60V, a collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -50V, and an emitter-base voltage (VEBO) of -5V. It also has a collector current (IC) of -1.5A and a collector power dissipation (PC) of 10W. Its current gain (hFE) typically ranges from 100 to 300. Transition Frequency (fT) is around 5 MHz. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +150°C. These specifications make it suitable for many audio and switching applications.
The package type for the 2SB646 is typically a TO-92 or similar through-hole package, allowing for easy mounting. Proper heat sinking may be needed when operating at high power levels to maintain reliability and prevent thermal runaway.
