2N5551 PNP Transistor

2N5551 is a general purpose NPN transistor built to use in high voltage circuits. The max collector to emitter voltage is 160V and collector to base voltage is 180V due to which it can be easily used in circuit using under 160 volts. The max output load this transistor can handle is 600mA and the max collector dissipation is 625mW. The transistor is built to use in general purpose applications therefore it can be used for amplification and switching.
