S8050 Transistor

S8050 S-8050 8050 NPN 40V 500mA Low Power Transistor Bipolar Junctions Transistor BJT General Purpose Transistor TO-92 Package 3Pin Leads Silicon NPN Transistor

This transistor is a low voltage high current small signal NPN transistor, designed for Class B push-pull audio amplifier and general purpose applications.

S8050 is a commonly used NPN transistor. This transistor is designed for audio amplification and wide variety of general purpose uses in electronic circuits, like switching applications. Its collector current is 0.7A or 700mA so it can allow maximum current of 700mA through its collector and emitter pins. Therefore we can only drive loads which are in 700mA limit. The maximum voltage this transistor can allow through its collector and emitter pins is 20V, therefore you can only use this transistor in circuits which operate under 20V. The normal gain value of the transistor are 110 and the maximum gain value is 400. The max gain value shows the max amplification of a signal you can achieve from a transistor in an electronic circuit.

Where We Can Use it & How to Use:

S8050 transistor is a general purpose transistor, it is a perfect transistor to perform small and general tasks in electronic circuits. You can use it as a switch in electronic circuits to switch on loads under 700mA. 700mA is enough to handle variety of loads for example relays, LEDs, bulbs etc. It can also be used as amplifier in small amplification stages or as a separate small signal amplifier.

Applications:

• Class B Amplifiers
• Push pull circuits
• Switch for small loads
• Amplifying low gain signals to high gain

How to Safely Long Run in A Circuit:

To safely run this transistor in your circuit or electronic projects do not operate this transistor from voltage higher than 20V and do not operate any load more than 700mA or 0.7A. Use a suitable base resistor which will limits the base current to its required level. Do not expose it to heat over 150 centigrade and below -60 Centigrade.
