2SC5198 NPN Transistor: Replacement, Circuit and Datasheet

2SC5198 Pinout

The transistor 2SC5198 is a TO-3P NPN transistor. This transistor is primarily designed for audio amplification and performs admirably across the entire audio frequency range of 20Hz to 20 kHz. It works well in amplifier circuits and gives the same sound quality as the input at the output with additional amplification, making it excellent for use in high-power audio amplifier output stages. It's most commonly employed in audio amplifier circuits with its PNP complementary transistor 2SA1941.

There should be that kept 2SC5198 at least 20% below its absolute maximum ratings for long-term performance. The transistor's maximum collector current is 10A, so don't drive loads higher than 8A. The transistor's maximum collector to emitter voltage is 140V, so don't drive loads higher than 112V. Always store or use the transistor at temperatures above -55 degrees centigrade and below +150 degrees centigrade, using an appropriate heat sink.

2SC5198 Transistor is designed for audio amplification but can also be utilized in switching circuits. As a result, it can be employed in a high-power audio amplifier output stage of up to 70W. Aside from that, it can be used as a switch to drive up to 10A of load.
