Low saturation voltage: VCE (sat) = 1.5 V (max)
(IC = 1 A, IB = 1 mA)
Absolute Maximum Ratings (Ta = 25°C)
Characteristics Symbol Rating Unit
Collector-base voltage VCBO 100 V
Collector-emitter voltage VCEO 100 V
Emitter-base voltage VEBO 8 V
Collector current IC (DC) 2 A
Collector current IC (Pulse) 3 A
Base current IB 0.5 A

Note: Using continuously under heavy loads (e.g. the application of high
temperature/current/voltage and the significant change in temperature, etc.) may cause this product to
decrease in the reliability significantly even if the operating conditions (i.e. operating
temperature/current/voltage, etc.) are within the absolute maximum ratings.
Please design the appropriate reliability upon reviewing the Toshiba Semiconductor Reliability Handbook
(“Handling Precautions”/Derating Concept and Methods) and individual reliability data (i.e. reliability test report
and estimated failure rate, etc).
