2N1893 Overview

This device has a DC current gain of 40 @ 150mA 10V, which is the ratio between the collector current and the base current.As it features a collector emitter saturation voltage of 1.2V, it allows for maximum design flexibility.A VCE saturation (Max) of 5V @ 15mA, 150mA means Ic has reached its maximum value(saturated).The emitter base voltage can be kept at 7V for high efficiency.Its current rating is 500mA, which means that it can sustain a maximum current for an indefinite period of time without degrading too much.A transition frequency of 50MHz is present in the part.There is a breakdown input voltage of 80V volts that it can take.In extreme cases, the collector current can be as low as 500mA volts.
