DC current gain is specified at a minimum of 40 at 30 mA collector current and 10 Vce — a moderate beta that keeps base drive requirements manageable for a 500 mA load.
Package and mounting — TO-92AP with formed leads
The TO-92AP variant uses formed leads and ships in Tape & Box (TB) — a bulk-style packaging suited for hand-assembly or low-volume production.
Temperature rating — junction only
The maximum junction temperature is rated at 150°C — no separate ambient operating range is listed.
