BC368 Transistor 25V 1A NPN TRANSISTOR 368 CDIL BC368

Product Overview

The BC368 is a medium-power NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for general-purpose switching and driver applications. Its relatively high current handling capability (up to 1A) in a compact TO-92 package makes it an excellent choice for driving small motors, relays, or light-emitting diode (LED) arrays in circuits where space is at a premium. It is frequently used in industrial control systems and consumer electronics where a robust, small-signal transistor is needed to switch moderate loads.
