BD241 NPN Power Transistor – Datasheet

The BD241 NPN power transistor is manufactured in planar technology with “Base Island” layout. The resulting transistor shows exceptional high gain performance coupled with very low saturation voltage. The PNP types are BD242A and BD242C

Power Transistor?

Transistors are three-terminal semiconductor electronic devices that can be used as switches or amplifiers. They can be of NPN or PNP polarity, and many different types are available with different power and switching speed ratings. If a transistor designed to these concepts can handle more than 1 A of collector current, it is generally considered to be a power transistor. Such transistors must have low output resistance to deliver large load currents, and good junction insulation to resist high voltages.
