NTE2312
Silicon NPN Transistor
High Voltage, High Speed Switch
Description:
The NTE2312 is a silicon NPN transistor in a TO220 type package designed for high–voltage, high–
speed power switching inductive circuits where fall time is critical. This device is particularly suited
for 115V and 220V switch–mode applications such as switching regulators, inverters, motor controls,
solenoid/relay drivers, and deflection circuits.
