Description:

The B772P is PNP silicon transistor suited for the output stage of 3 W audio amplifier, voltage regulator, DC-DC converter and relay driver.

Advantages Vs Disadvantages

Advantages:

1. High voltage and current capacity

2. Low saturation voltage for efficient switching

3. Complementary NPN transistor available for use in push-pull circuits

Disadvantages:

1. Relatively low DC current gain compared to other transistors

2. May not be suitable for low power applications due to its high power dissipation rating
