Introducing Our High-Quality PNP Transistor - 2N3906

If you’re in need of a high-quality PNP transistor for your next project, look no further than the 2N3906 BJT Transistor from ST Micro. This versatile component is now available at Core Electronics, and we’re proud to offer it to our valued customers.

Understanding PNP Transistors

PNP transistors like the 2N3906 work by allowing current to flow from the collector to the emitter when a small current is applied to the base. Unlike NPN transistors, PNP transistors are arranged differently inside of the component, with the positive layer being in between two negative layers. This makes them ideal for use in a wide variety of circuits and applications.

The Benefits of the 2N3906 Transistor

At Core Electronics, Sparkfun choose to stock the ST Micro 2N3906 transistor because it is a high-quality and reliable component that is suitable for use in a broad range of projects. With a maximum collector current of 200 mA and a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 40 V, this transistor is ideal for use in low-power applications.
