SEMICONDUCTOR TECHNICAL DATA
NPN Bipolar Power Transistor
For Switching Power Supply Applications
*Motorola Preferred Device
The BUL44/BUL44F have an applications specific state–of–the–art die designed
for use in 220 V line operated Switchmode Power supplies and electronic light
ballasts. These high voltage/high speed transistors offer the following:
POWER TRANSISTOR
2.0 AMPERES
700 VOLTS
40 and 100 WATTS
•
Improved Efficiency Due to Low Base Drive Requirements:
— High and Flat DC Current Gain h
— Fast Switching
FE
— No Coil Required in Base Circuit for Turn–Off (No Current Tail)
Full Characterization at 125°C
Tight Parametric Distributions are Consistent Lot–to–Lot
Two Package Choices: Standard TO–220 or Isolated TO–220
