CD8050 Transistor CDIL TO92 NPN 8050 CDIL CD8050

Product Overview:

A through-hole NPN silicon epitaxial planar medium-power bipolar junction transistor housed in a standard TO-92 plastic package. Much like its counterpart, the 8550, the 8050 is engineered for applications requiring high collector current capabilities within a compact package. It is frequently utilized in high-efficiency switching circuits, audio output stages for portable electronics, and driver circuits for relays or small motors. It serves as the complementary NPN pair to the S8550 (or C8550) PNP transistor.
