  • 2N3055�is a general purpose NPN(negative-positive-negative) power transistor manufactured with the epitaxial base process, mounted in a hermetically sealed metal case. The device is designed for general purpose switching and amplifier applications.
  • Unlike FETs(Field effect transistors) it is a current controlled device in which small current at the base side is used to control a large amount of current at the emitter and collector side.
  • This transistor is a bipolar current controlled device which is different than JFET which is a unipolar voltage controlled device.
  • 15A, 60V, 115W EPIBASE
  • 2N3055 is also used in audio power amplifiers. The device has good amplifying factor and also the gain is almost linear making 2N3055 one of best solution for power amplifiers.
