Complementary Silicon

High-Power Transistors

These PowerBase complementary transistors are designed for high

power audio, stepping motor and other linear applications. These

devices can also be used in power switching circuits such as relay or

solenoid drivers, dc−to−dc converters, inverters, or for inductive loads

requiring higher safe operating area than the 2N3055.
