TRD236D
High voltage fast-switching NPN power transistor
Features
High voltage capability
Low spread of dynamic parameters
Minimum lot-to-lot spread for reliable operation
Very high switching speed
Integrated antiparallel collector-emitter diode
Applications
Electronic ballast for fluorescent lighting
Electronic transformer for halogen lamps
Description
This device is an NPN power transistor
manufactured using high voltage multi epitaxial
planar technology for high switching speeds. It
uses a cellular emitter structure with planar edge
termination to enhance switching speeds while
maintaining a satisfactory RBSOA.
