30 W at 25°C Case Temperature
1 A Continuous Collector Current
3 A Peak Collector Current
Customer-Specified Selections Available
absolute maximum ratings at 25°C case temperature (unless otherwise noted)
NOTES: 1. This value applies for t
p
≤ 0.3 ms, duty cycle ≤ 10%.
2. Derate linearly to 150°C case temperature at the rate of 0.24 W/°C.
3. Derate linearly to 150°C free air temperature at the rate of 16 mW/°C.
4. This rating is based on the capability of the transistor to operate safely in a circuit of: L = 20 mH, I
