These devices are intended for a wide variety of (FLANGE) | OC) oO - i switching and amplifier applications such as series and shunt regulators, and driver and output stages of high-fidelity __}_ > t. amplifiers. The 8D240-series power transistors are complements TOP VIEW of the devices in the BD239 series. (The 8D230-series devices 9268-39969 are described in File No. 669.) JEDEC TO-220AB All types utilize the JEDEC TO-220AB (VERSAWATT) plas- tic package.
