LM2575 Buck Converter Datasheet, Pinout, Features, Applications

Hi Guys! Glad to see you around. I welcome you on board. In this post today, I’ll walk through the Introduction to LM2575. LM2575 is a step-down voltage regulator mainly used to step down the voltage. It is also known as a buck converter and is used to drive load under 1A. In the customized output version of the buck converter, you can set the output voltage as you like better. It comes with an extremely good load and line regulation and is available in fixed output voltages with 3.3V, 5V, and 12V. I suggest you read this post all the way through, as in this post I’ll detail the Introduction to LM2575 covering the datasheet, pinout, features, and applications of this component LM2575. Let’s get started.

Introduction to LM2575

• LM2575 is a voltage regulator and simplified version of switching power supplies that carry all functions required to step down the voltage in the circuit.
• This buck converter is incorporated with an integrated switch that can support load under 1A.

• LM2575 carries an excellent load line and load regulation. It comes in two versions: fixed output voltage version with voltage 3.3V, 5V, 12V, and adjustable output version that gives the ability to pick your desired output.
• It is also called the DC-to-DC power converter employed to step down the voltage from its input supply to its output load. The current increases during this voltage regulation.
• This regulator is integrated with a fixed-frequency oscillator of about 52 kHz and an in-built frequency compensation method.

• Frequency compensation is applied to reduce vibration and oscillation in the circuit. It can be obtained using resistance-capacitance networks.
• Apart from the remarkable load and line regulation, this device comes with a manual shutdown option through an external ON/OFF pin.
• Less external components are needed for this buck converter since it works at a fixed frequency of 52 kHz.

LM2575 Features

• Fixed versions with 3.3-V, 5-V, 12-V, and adjustable output versions
• Adjustable output version with voltage range: 1.2-V to 37-V ±4% maximum over load and line conditions
• Available in two packages named TO-263 and TO-220 packages.
• Can drive load under 1A.
• Comes with low power standby mode, commonly less than 200 µA.
• Uses easily available standard inductors and is highly efficient.
• 4.75 to 40 V is the input voltage range.
• 23V to 37V is the output voltage range.

• 80% efficiency.
• Excellent load and line regulations.
• Fixed internal oscillator frequency of 52 kHz.
• TTL shutdown capability.
• Protection against overcurrent and thermal shutdown.

LM2575 Pinout

LM2575 comes with five terminals. The following figure shows the pinout diagram of LM2575. ON/OFF = I = this terminal can shut down the voltage regulator circuit with input supply current decreasing to 50uA. Its working is simple and straightforward. When the voltage available on this pin is turned below the threshold voltage of 1.3V, it results in turning on the voltage regulator. And when the voltage is turned above the 1.3V, it results in turning off the voltage converter. You can remove this shutdown feature by connecting the pin to the ground or leaving it open. In both cases, the regulator will be turned ON. VIN = I = this is the 16 number input terminal attached with the input bypass capacitor to reduce voltage transients and to provide the switching current. Output = O = this is the 3 number pin that acts like an internal switch where voltage switches between (Vin – Vsat) and -0.5V. The duty cycle on this pin is Vout/Vin. The PCB copper area connected to this pin is mainly used to reduce the coupling. Ground = three pins number 5,12 & 13 are attached to the ground. Feedback = I = this is the 7 number pin that indicates the regulated output voltage for the feedback loop.

Introduction to TIP42

Hi Guys! Thank you for clicking this read. Hope this finds you well. In this post today, I’ll document the Introduction to Tip42. Tip42 is a medium power silicon transistor mainly used for switching and amplification purpose. It belongs to the PNP transistor family and comes in the TO-220 package. The collector current is 6A which signals it can support load under 6A. Both collector-base and the collector-emitter voltages are 40V. And the only 5V is required to initiate the transistor action as the emitter-base voltage is 5V. The power dissipation is 65W which defines the amount of energy released during the working of this transistor. The storage junction temperature is -65 to 150C and transition frequency is 3MHz. Just stay with me for 2-min as I’ll be discussing the main features, pinout, datasheet, and applications of the device Tip42. Let’s jump right in.

Introduction to TIP42

• • Tip42 is an epitaxial medium power silicon transistor mainly used for switching and amplification purpose. It falls under the category of PNP transistor and comes with current gain ranging from 15 to 75.
  • This current gain demonstrates the capacity of transistor it can amplify the current. It’s a ratio between the output current and input current.
  • Tip42 is a bipolar transistor which means two charge carriers are used in the conductivity process inside the transistor.
  • Both electrons and holes take part in the conductivity process. And in this case of PNP transistor, holes are majority carriers. And electrons are minority carriers in the case of NPN transistors.

• This PNP transistor contains three terminals called the emitter, base, and collector. All these terminals carry different functionality and different doping concentration.

• This different doping concentration is the main reason this bipolar transistor is not symmetrical. The external circuit is connected with the transistor through these terminals.
• Tip42 is composed of two p-doped layers and one n-doped layer. The n-doped layer is sandwiched between the two p-doped layers. The two p-layers represent the collector and emitter terminals and the n-layer represents the base terminal. The N sign shows, a negative voltage is applied on the base terminal to trigger and start the transistor action.
• This bipolar transistor controls the small input current and produces the large output current, the reason these devices are called current-controlled devices because two charge carriers are used for conductivity in contrast to FETs(field effect transistor) which is unipolar voltage-controlled devices. Where conductivity is carried out with only one charge carrier.

 

TIP42 Features

The following are the main features of transistor BC538.

• Package: TO-220
• Material: Silicon
• Type – PNP
• Emitter-Base Voltage: 5 V
• Collector-Base Voltage: 40 V
• Collector-Emitter Voltage: 40 V
• Collector Dissipation: 65 W
• Collector Current: 6 A
• Transition Frequency: 3 MHz
• Current Gain (hfe): 15 to 75
• Storage Junction Temperature: -65 to +150 °C

  These are the main features and absolute maximum ratings of the device Tip42. Make sure you don’t apply these ratings for more than the required time, otherwise it will harm your device reliability.

• Plus, make sure your ratings don’t exceed these absolute maximum ratings while you’re working with the device, otherwise they will badly damage the device and thus the entire project.

• Both collector-emitter and collector-base voltages are 40V while the emitter-base voltage is 5V which projects you need to apply 5V to initiate the transistor action.
• The Collector current is 6V which indicates this transistor can support load under 6A. The transition frequency is 3MHz and power dissipation is 65W which is the amount of energy released during the working of this transistor.

• DC common-emitter current gain ranges from 15 to 75. It is a ratio between collector current and base current. This describes the capacity of transistors it can amplify the current. This is a relation between output amplified current to input small current.
• Another important current gain is the common-base current gain which is a ratio between collector current and emitter current and its value is always less than one. Normally ranges from 0.5 to 0.95.
• The small current at one pair of terminals is used to produce large current across other pairs of terminals of the transistor and this process is used for amplification purposes.
• It is important to note that the PNP transistors are less likely to employ for amplification purposes than NPN transistors. Because the mobility of electrons in the NPN transistor is far better and quicker than the mobility of holes in PNP transistors.

 

TIP42 Pinout

The Tip42 consists of three main terminals called: 1: Base 2: Collector 3: Emitter The following figure shows the pinout diagram of Tip42.

• The collector terminal is lightly doped and the emitter terminal is highly doped in contrast to the other two terminals.
• The collector terminal is 10-times lightly doped than the base terminal. And this transistor is manufactured in such a way, the collector side covers the entire emitter terminal area.
• The base terminal is responsible for the entire transistor action.
• This base terminal acts like a control valve that controls the number of holes in the case of the PNP transistor and the number of electrons in the case of NPN transistor.

• When 5V is applied at the base terminal, it gets biased and starts the transistor action where current moves from emitter to collector terminal which is the opposite in the case of NPN transistors where current moves from collector to emitter terminal. And in both cases base terminal controls the amount of current passing through it.

TIP42 Datasheet

The voltage across collector and emitter terminals is 100V and the voltage across base and collector terminals is 100V. The 5V is the voltage across base and emitter terminals which projects the value of voltage required to bias this transistor. The 6A is collector current which indicates the value of loads this transistor can support. Just bear with me for a little while as I’ll be documenting the main features, pinout, applications, and datasheet of this tiny component Tip42c.

2SB772 Transistor Pinout, Features, Datasheet & Applications

Hello everyone! I welcome you on board. Hope you’re well. In this post today, I’ll detail the Introduction to 2sb772. 2sb772 is a PNP transistor that comes in the TO-126 package. It is mainly used for amplification and switching purposes. This is a bipolar junction transistor which means the conductivity is carried out by two charge carriers i.e. holes and electrons. And it comprises of two junctions where the base-emitter junction is forward biased and the base-collector junction is reverse biased in forward active mode. In this post, I’ll be discussing the working principle, pinout, datasheet, physical dimensions, power ratings, and applications of the device 2sb772. Let’s get started.

Introduction to 2SB772

• The 2sb772 is a medium power PNP bipolar junction transistor mainly employed for switching and amplification purpose.
• It comes with three main terminals called the emitter, collector, and base. All these terminals come with different functionality and different doping concentrations.
• The emitter side is highly doped in contrast to the other two terminals and the collector is lightly doped. The base terminal is 10-times highly doped compared to the collector terminal.
• 2sb772 is a semiconductor device made up of silicon material and it consists of three layers. Where one is an n-doped layer that stands between two p-doped layers.

• The n-layer signals the base terminal and indicates that negative voltage supply is required to bias the base terminal and start the overall transistor action.
• As this is a bipolar transistor, both electrons and holes play a vital role in the conductivity process.

• And holes are majority carriers while electrons are minority carriers in this case in contrast to NPN transistors where electrons are major carriers and holes are minority carriers.
• The bipolar transistors like this 2sb772 are the building blocks of modern electronics.
• In some cases, however, the vacuum tubes are preferred over bipolar transistors since the mobility of charge carriers is far better in vacuum tubes which is suitable for high-power high-frequency applications like on-air television broadcasting.

2SB772 Datasheet

Before installing this component into your project, have a quick look at the datasheet that helps you get a hold of the main characteristics of the device. Click the link below and download the datasheet of 2sb772.

2SB772 Pinout

The 2sb772 carries three main terminals known as 1: Emitter 2: Collector 3: Base The following figure shows the pinout diagram of the 2sb772 transistor.

• All these terminals are used for the external connection with the circuit. The emitter side carries the overall transistor current.
• And in this PNP transistor current flows from the emitter to the collector terminal due to the movement of major charge carriers i.e. holes.
• While the current flows from the collector to the emitter terminal in the case of NPN transistors due to the mobility of electrons.

2SB772 Working Principle

• The working principle of this transistor is simple and quite similar to NPN transistors. In both NPN and PNP transistors, the base pin is mainly responsible for the overall transistor action.
• And when a positive voltage is applied at the base terminal it gets biased and current flows due to the movement of holes.

• When there is no current available at the base terminal, the transistor is turned ON and in that case, both collector and emitter pins are forward biased.

• And when there’s current present at the base terminal, the device is turned OFF and both emitter and collector terminals are reverse biased.
• Unlike other transistors, bipolar transistors are not symmetrical. Different doping concentrations of both emitter and collector sides are responsible for the lack of symmetry inside bipolar junction transistors.
• Moreover, if we exchange the collector and emitter terminals, the common-emitter gain and common-current values will be less than they are normally observed.
• The common-emitter current gain is called beta and is also known as the amplification factor. In this case, the amplification factor stretches from 30 to 300. This factor determines the amount of input current this transistor can amplify.

TIP41C Transistor Pinout, Features, Datasheet & Applications

Hi Friends! Welcome you on board. Happy to see you around. In this post today, I’ll walk you through the Introduction to Tip41c. Tip41c is an NPN transistor that comes in the TO-220 package and is mainly used for amplification and switching purposes. It’s a high switching speed device with improved current gain and a high collector current around 6A that indicates the value of load this device can support. Both collector-base and collector-emitter voltages are 100V (higher than other bipolar transistors) and the emitter-base voltage is 5V which shows the only 5V is required to bias this component. Just stay with me for a little while as I’m going to detail the pinout, datasheet, applications, power ratings, working principle, and physical dimensions of this tiny device. Let’s jump right in.

Introduction to TIP41C

• Tip41C is an electronic tiny device mainly used for switching and amplification purpose. It belongs to the category of NPN transistor and comes with high power around 65W, which is the amount of energy released during the working of this transistor.
• This NPN transistor comes with three pins, also known as terminals, called the emitter, collector, and base.
• The small input current across one pair of terminals is used to produce a large current across other pairs of terminals. This process is used for amplification purposes.

• Tip41c is composed of three layers. One is a p-doped layer and the other two are n-doped layers that are made up of semiconductors (silicon material).
• The p-doped layer sits between the two n-doped layers. And the p-doped layer is the base terminal and the P sign shows positive voltage is applied at the base terminal to start the transistor action.
• This device is composed of two junctions. One is the base-emitter junction that is forward biased and the base-collector junction that is reverse biased in forward active mode.

• The collector current is 6A which is much higher than other bipolar transistors available in the market. This current defines the amount of load this device can support.
• And common-emitter current gain stretches from 15 to 75 which is the capacity of the transistor it can amplify the input current. It is a ratio between collector current and base current.
• The transistor frequency is 3MHz which demonstrates how the current gain of the transistor is influenced by the input frequency.
• This device controls the low input current and produces high output current, the reason this device is called a current-controlled device.
• This is a bipolar transistor which means two charge carriers are used for the conductivity process i.e. electrons and holes. The electrons are major carriers in NPN transistors and holes are major carriers in PNP transistors.

 

TIP41C Datasheet

Datasheet of any component documents the characteristic and performance of the device through which you understand what the product is about and its power ratings. Click the link below to download the datasheet of Tip41c.

TIP41C Pinout

The Tip41c comes with three terminals named: 1: Base 2: Collector 3: Emitter The following figure shows the pinout diagram of Tip41c.

• This device is manufactured in such a way, the collector side covers the entire emitter area, making electrons difficult to escape without being collected by the collector terminal.
• All these pins come with different doping concentrations. The collector side is lightly doped and the emitter side is more doped compared to both base and emitter pin.
• The collector pin is 10-times lightly doped compared to the base terminal. These pins are used for external connections with the electrical circuit.

TIP41C Working Principle

• No matter the bipolar transistor you pick, the base pin is responsible for the transistor action in every bipolar transistor. When a positive voltage is applied at the base pin, it gets biased, initiating the transistor action.
• And the current starts flowing from the collector to the emitter terminal in contrast to the PNP transistor where current flows from emitter to collector terminal.
• The base pin works like a control valve that controls the number of electrons in this NPN transistor and the number of holes in the PNP transistor.
• The bipolar transistors are not symmetrical. The lack of symmetry is caused by different doping concentrations of collector and emitter terminals.

• The two most common current gains are used to demonstrate the nature and current amplification capability… one is a common-emitter gain that 10 to 75 in this case which is a ratio between the collector and base current.

• It’s is also known as the amplification factor. This factor signals the capacity of transistors it can amplify the small input current. This factor is called beta.
• Another important factor is a common-base current gain which is a ratio between collector and emitter current. The value of this gain is always less than 1. Most likely stretches from 0.5 to 0.95.

TIP41C Power Ratings

The table below shows the absolute maximum ratings of Tip41c.

5	Current Gain	hfe	15 to 75
6	Power Dissipation	Ptot	65	W
7	Storage Temperature	Tstg	-65 to 150	C

• You can see from the table, collector-base and collector-emitter voltages are 100V and the emitter-base voltage is 5V which means it requires 5V to start the transistor action.

• Total power dissipation is 65W and common-emitter current gain lies from 15 to 75 that defines the capacity of transistor it can amplify the input current. The transition frequency is 3MHz and the storage temperature stands from -65 to 150C.

TIP41C Alternatives

The following are the alternatives to Tip41c.

• MJE5180
• 2SD1895
• MJE5181
• BC911
• BD711

Cross-check the pinout of alternatives before you incorporate them into your project. It’s likely the pinout of the alternatives doesn’t exactly match with the Tip41c pinout. To remain on the safe side and to avoid any hassle later, double-check the pinout of the alternatives. The complementary PNP transistor to Tip41c is Tip42c.

B772 Transistor Pinout, Features, Datasheet & Applications

Hi Guys! Hope you’re well today. Thank you for clicking this read. In this post today, I’ll walk you through the Introduction to B772. B772 is a medium power bipolar junction transistor mainly used for switching and amplification purpose and belongs to the PNP transistor family. It comes in the TO-126 package and carries a collector current of 3A which means it can support load under 3A. The 60V is the collector-base voltage and 30V is the collector-emitter voltage while 5V is the emitter-base voltage which means it requires 5V to bias the transistor and start transistor action. In this post, I’ll be discussing pinout, datasheet, working principle, power ratings, physical dimensions, and applications of B772. Let’s get started.

Introduction to B772

• B772 is a bipolar junction transistor that falls under the category of PNP transistors.
• It contains three pins called the emitter, collector, and base terminals. During the amplification process in the circuit, the small input current present at the base terminal is used to produce large output current at the remaining terminals.
• This PNP transistor is made up of silicon material and comes in the TO-126 package.
• B772 comes with three layers where two are p-doped layers and one is n-doped. The n-doped layer stands between two p-doped layers.

• The two n-doped layers represent collector and emitter and one n-doped layer represents the base terminal and indicates the base terminal requires a negative voltage supply to start the transistor action.
• You know it already, both electrons and holes play a crucial role in the conductivity process inside the transistor, in the case of PNP transistor holes are majority carriers and electrons are minority carriers in the case of NPN transistors.

• In comparison, NPN transistors are preferred over PNP transistors because the mobility of electrons is better than the movement of holes in the PNP transistor. In rare cases, both PNP and its complementary NPN transistors are incorporated inside a single circuit.
• This device is produced using planer technology that generates rugged high-performance components.

 

B772 Datasheet

The datasheet of any component exhibits the main characteristics of the device. It will help you get a hold of the current and voltage required for the emitter, collector, and base terminals. Click below to download the datasheet of B772.

B772 Pinout

B772 carries three main terminals that are known as: 1: Emitter 2: Collector 3: Base The following figure shows the pinout diagram of B772.

• These terminals are used for the external connection with the electronic circuit. All these pins exhibit different doping concentrations and different functionality.
• The emitter side is more doped compared to other terminals. Moreover, the emitter terminal contains the entire current of the transistor i.e. Ie = Ic + Ib

B772 Working Principle

• B772 is a low saturation voltage and high current device where the base terminal is responsible for the overall transistor action.
• The emitter and collector side is reverse biased when there is current present at the base terminal and in that case, the device is considered turned OFF.

• And when there is no current at the base side, both collector and emitter are forward biased and the transistor is turned ON.

• Recall, this is a PNP transistor, here the n-doped layer represents the base side that is negative. The negative voltage supply is applied at the base side to start the transistor working process.

B772 Power Ratings

The following table shows the absolute maximum ratings of the device B772.

5	Current Gain	hfe	30 to 300
6	Power Dissipation	Ptot	12.5	W
7	Storage Temperature	Tstg	-65 to 150	C

• Total power dissipation is 12.5W which signals the amount of energy released during the working of this transistor.
• Junction temperature is 150C and storage temperature stands between 65 to 150C
• These are called stress ratings. When you incorporate this device into your project, make sure ratings don’t surpass the absolute maximum ratings.
• If they exceed the required ratings, it will damage the device and thus the entire project.

 

Difference between PNP and NPN transistors

• Both NPN and PNP are bipolar junction transistors and work similarly with a few exceptions. The current directions and voltage polarities are reversed.
• In the case of PNP transistor, the conductivity is carried out from the emitter to the collector side while in the case of NPN transistor the conductivity process is carried out from the collector to the emitter side.

• Moreover, the holes are majority carriers in the case of PNP transistors and minority carriers in the case of NPN transistors. While electrons are majority carriers in NPN transistors and minority carriers in the case of PNP transistors.

• And negative voltage is applied at the base pin in the PNP transistor and a positive voltage is applied at the base terminal in the case of NPN transistor.

Introduction to 2SD882

Hi Fellas! Hope you’re doing well today. I welcome you on board.

As this is a bipolar transistor, here conductivity is carried out by two charge carriers i.e. electrons and holes where electrons are major charge carriers and holes are minority carriers. During the amplification application, the small input current across one pair of terminals is used to produce a large output current across other pairs of terminals. In this post, I’ll walk you through the working principle, pinout, power ratings, alternatives, applications, datasheet, and physical dimensions of the 2sd882 transistor.

Introduction to 2SD882

• 2sd882 is a medium power transistor that belongs to the NPN transistor family. It contains two junctions… the base-emitter junction which is forward biased and the base-collector junction is reverse biased in forward active mode.
• This NPN transistor is composed of three layers where one is a p-doped layer that sits between two n-doped layers.
• 2sd882 carries three terminals called the emitter, collector, and base. The electrical circuit is connected with the transistor through these terminals.
• It is a high current and low saturation voltage device with common-emitter current gain ranging from 30 to 300. The current gain demonstrates the value of current this transistor can amplify. And this current gain varies depending on the voltage and current characteristics of the transistors.

• The collector-base voltage is 60V and the collector-emitter voltage is 30V. While the emitter-base voltage is 5V that indicates the amount of voltage it requires to bias the transistor and start the transistor action.

• In bipolar junction transistors, two charge carriers are used i.e. holes and electrons. And in this NPN transistor current flows from the collector to the emitter side with electrons as major charge carriers and holes as minority carriers.
• This NPN transistor is manufactured in such a way where the collector side surrounds the emitter side. In this construction, the electrons cannot escape the collector region emitted by the emitter terminal.

2SD882 Pinout

The 2sd882 comes with three pins known as: 1: Emitter 2: Collector 3: Base The following figure represents the pinout diagram of transistor 2sd882.

• All these terminals come with different doping concentrations. The collector pin is lightly doped and the emitter pin is highly doped compared to other terminals.
• The collector pin is 10-times less doped compared to the base pin. Moreover, the emitter side contains the entire current of the device.

2SD882 Working Principle

• When a positive voltage is applied at the base pin, it gets biased and the current flows from the collector to the emitter terminal.
• Recall, both electrons and holes play a key role in the conductivity process inside a transistor but holes are minority carriers and electrons are majority carriers.
• It is observed bipolar devices like this transistor are not symmetrical components. This means exchanging the emitter and collector terminals will prevent the transistor from working in forward active mode and put both terminals in the reverse active mode.
• This can affect and reduce the values of common-emitter current gain and common-base current gain.

• The lack of symmetry is caused by the different doping concentrations of both emitter and collector terminals.

• Common-emitter current gain is 30-300 in this transistor, which is denoted by beta and common-base current gain is always less than one which is denoted by alpha.
• And switching the emitter and collector terminals will put the alpha value somewhere around 0.5 and the beta value less than 300.
• Also, NPN transistors are preferred over PNP transistors since the mobility of electrons is far better and quicker than the movement of holes.

Introduction to D882

Hi there! Hope this finds you well. I welcome you on board. Thanks for clicking this read. In this post today, I’ll be discussing the Introduction to D882 transistor.

D882 is a general-purpose transistor mainly famous for its high performance. It falls under the category of NPN transistor and is an ideal pick for commercial, educational, and hobbyists’ electronic projects. It comes in TO-126 with collector current 3A, projecting it can drive loads under 3A. There are three pins incorporated on the transistor which are used for external connections. The collector-emitter and collector-base voltages are 30V and 40V respectively with emitter-base voltage 5V, indicating only 5V are required to bias the component.

Read this post all the way through as I’ll walk you through pinout, datasheet, alternatives, working principle, power ratings, applications, and physical dimensions of this tiny electronic component D882.

Let’s jump right in.

Introduction to D882

• D882 is a general-purpose transistor that belongs to the NPN transistor family. It comes with collector current 5A and is mainly used for switching and amplification purpose.
• The amplification factor is 60-400. This factor indicates the amount of current this device can amplify.
• This NPN transistor contains three pins called the emitter, collector, and base. The small current at the base terminal is amplified and produced across the remaining two terminals. This process is used for amplification purposes.

• D882 consists of three layers where two are n-doped layers and one is a p-doped layer. This p-doped layer represents the base terminal which means a positive voltage supply is applied at the base terminal in contrast to the PNP transistor where the base terminal is negative indicating negative voltage supply is applied at the base terminal.
• As this is an NPN transistor, here current flows from collector to emitter in opposite to PNP transistors where current flows from emitter to collector terminal.
• This device controls the input current, the reason it’s known as a current-controlled device and is different than FETs (field effect transistor) that are voltage-controlled devices.
• Though both holes and electrons play a vital role in the conductivity of the transistor, here in this NPN transistor electrons are majority carriers and holes are minority carriers, indicating major part of the conductivity inside the transistor is done by the movement of electrons which is far better than the movement of holes.
• This NPN transistor is preferred over PNP transistors for the amplification purpose because electrons prove handy for conductivity compared to holes as they are fast carriers.

D882 Datasheet

The datasheet of any component gives you the characteristics of the device through which you can understand the main features of the component before employing it in your project. Click the link below and download the datasheet of D882.

D882 Pinout

These pins are also called terminals. The small input current at the base terminal is used to produce a large current at the emitter and collector terminals.

D882 Working Principle

• The overall transistor action starts from the base pin. The base terminal behaves like a control valve that controls the number of electrons emitted from the emitter terminal which are then collected by the collector terminal that is coupled with a resistor to control the electrical current.
• Recall, in the NPN transistor the positive voltage supply is applied at the base terminal.
• The P-doped layer in the NPN transistor represents the base terminal and the other two n-doped layers represent emitter and collector terminals which are negative.

• Also, this base terminal controls the number of holes in the PNP transistors, as holes are the majority carriers in PNP transistors.
• When 5V is applied at the base terminal it gets biased and starts the transistor action. The small input current is used to create a large output current at the other two terminals.

• This device exhibits a collector current of 3A which is ideal for driving LED, bulbs, motors, and relays. The maximum power dissipation is 10W which makes it a valuable pick for the output stages of audio amplifiers.
• It is important to note that these are the stress ratings which if exceeding the absolute maximum ratings, can badly affect the device and thus the entire project. Keep ratings during the working of this component below absolute maximum ratings.
• One more thing… don’t apply these ratings for maximum time. If you apply these ratings more than the required time, can affect device reliability.
