NTE197 (PNP)
Silicon Complementary Transistors Audio Power Output and Medium Power Switching

See also >> NTE196 (NPN)

Description:
The NTE196 (NPN) and NTE197 (PNP) are silicon complementary transistors in a TO220 type package designed for use in general purpose amplifier and switching applications.

Features:
- DC Current Gain Specified to 7 Amps: hFE = 2.3 Min @ IC = 7A
- Collector-Emitter Sustaining Voltage: VCEO(sus) = 70V Min
- High Current-Gain Bandwidth Product:
fT = 4MHz Min @ IC = 500mA (NTE196)
= 10MHz Min @ IC = 500mA (NTE197)
