Storage Temperature TSTG -65 to +150 °C
Soldering Temperature (Iron)(3,4,5 and 6) TSOL-I 240 for 5 sec °C
Soldering Temperature (Flow)(3,4 and 6) TSOL-F 260 for 10 sec °C
Collector to Emitter Breakdown Voltage VCEO 45 V
Collector to Base Breakdown Voltage VCBO 45 V
Emitter to Base Breakdwon Voltage VEBO 5 V
Power Dissipation (TA = 25°C)(1) PD 300 mW
Power Dissipation (TC = 25°C)(2) PD 600 mW
NOTE:
1. Derate power dissipation linearly 3.00 mW/°C above 25°C ambient.
2. Derate power dissipation linearly 6.00 mW/°C above 25°C case.
3. RMA flux is recommended.
4. Methanol or isopropyl alcohols are recommended as cleaning agents.
5. Soldering iron tip 1/16” (1.6mm) minimum from housing.
6. As long as leads are not under any stress or spring tension.
7. Light source is a GaAs LED emitting light at a peak wavelength of 940 nm.
8. Figure 1 and figure 2 use light source of tungsten lamp at 2870°K color temperature. A GaAs source of 3.0 mW/cm2 is approximately
equivalent to a tungsten source, at 2870°K, of 10 mW/cm2.
