BC337 NPN Transistor, TO-92

The BC337 is an NPN transistor offering an excellent maximum current gain of up to 600, with typical operation around 110, making it a natural amplifier and general-purpose switching choice. It serves as the complementary NPN counterpart to the BC327 PNP transistor, making the pair useful together in push-pull and complementary amplifier designs.

Rated for a maximum collector current of 800mA and maximum collector power dissipation of 625mW, the BC337 handles pre-amplifier, signal-conditioning and general-purpose switching duties comfortably. Its 100MHz transition frequency and 45V maximum collector-to-emitter voltage give it solid headroom for a wide range of small-signal circuits.
