NTE52
Silicon NPN Transistor
High Voltage, High Speed Switch
Description:
The NTE52 is a silicon NPN transistor in a TO3 type package designed for high voltage, high–speed
power switching in inductive circuits where fall time is critical. This device is particularly suited for
line–operated switch–mode appliations.
Applications:
D Switching Regulators
D Motor Controls
D Inverters
D Solenoid and Relay Drivers
