BC517 NPN Darlington Transistor 30V 1.2A TO-92 Package
The BC517 is a high-gain NPN Darlington transistor designed for medium-power amplification and switching applications. Featuring a Darlington pair configuration, it provides very high current gain, allowing control of medium-current loads with minimal base current. Housed in a compact TO-92 package, the BC517 offers reliable performance, low saturation voltage, and excellent thermal stability. With a collector-emitter voltage of 30V and a collector current up to 1.2A, it is ideal for audio amplifiers, signal amplification, relay drivers, and general medium-power switching circuits.
