2N2222A

The 2N2222A is a silicon NPN transistor in a TO-18 metal case designed for high-speed switching applications up to 500mA. It has a useful current gain over a wide range of currents, low leakage currents, and low saturation voltage. Key specifications include a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 40V, saturation voltage below 1V at 150mA, and DC current gain of 100-300 at 150mA. The transistor provides good performance for general purpose switching and small signal applications.
