It comes in a hermetically sealed TO-206AA (TO-18) metal can with through-hole leads, rated for junction temperatures from -65°C to 200°C. With a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 60 V and a continuous collector current rating of 600 mA, it handles general-purpose switching and linear amplification in avionics, missile guidance, satellite power supplies, and downhole instrumentation where commercial plastic-packaged parts are not accepted. ## 60 V Vce, 600 mA Ic — derating for the BOM The 60 V Vce breakdown sets the maximum rail voltage the transistor can withstand; for a 28 V military bus or a 48 V telecom rail, derate to 80% (48 V) for reliable operation. The 600 mA collector current limit means the part can switch relays, drive small solenoids, or buffer logic-level signals, but for continuous currents above 400 mA the 500 mW power dissipation limit becomes the binding constraint — check the junction temperature rise against the TO-18 thermal resistance, especially in still air. DC current gain (hFE) is a minimum of 100 at 150 mA collector current and 10 V Vce, which gives good drive margin for saturated switching. The 1.6 V Vce saturation at 50 mA base current and 500 mA collector current is typical for a 600 mA-rated PNP — budget for the drop when calculating load voltage in low-side switching configurations. ## Lifecycle and sourcing It is RoHS non-compliant by design — the tin-lead finish on the TO-18 leads is required for tin-whisker mitigation in high-reliability programs.","metaTitle":"JANTX2N2907A PNP Transistor, 60V 600mA, TO-206AA","metaDescription":"JANTX2N2907A PNP switching transistor, 60V Vce, 600mA Ic, 500mW Pd.
