CL100 Transistor CDIL TRANSISTOR CL100

Product Overview

The CL100 is a general-purpose NPN silicon bipolar junction transistor (BJT) housed in a metal TO-5 package. It is designed for medium-power switching and amplification applications. Because of its sturdy metal construction, it offers better thermal dissipation compared to standard plastic-packaged transistors like the TO-92 series, making it a reliable choice for circuits that require moderate power handling in industrial or laboratory environments.
