BF422 Description
The BF422 transistor is a BJT NPN transistor with a TO-92 plastic packaging. The first pin of the transistor is labelled "Emitter," the second pin is labelled "Collector," and the third pin is labelled "Base," as seen in the diagram above. The transistor has a maximum collector current of 50mA, a maximum collector to emitter voltage of 250V, a maximum collector to base voltage of 250V. an emitter to base voltage of 5V, a maximum collector dissipation of 830 mW, and a DC current gain of 50. Although the maximum transition frequency is 60 MHz, some manufacturers produce it with a transition frequency of 100MHz.

Safe Operating Guidelines
Please follow the rules below to achieve long-term performance from the BF422 transistor: Never push the transistor to its absolute maximum ratings; instead, remain 20% below the maximum values. The transistor's maximum collector current is 50mA; consequently, do not drive loads above 40mA; the transistor's maximum collector to emitter voltage is 250V; therefore, do not drive loads exceeding 200V; and always store or use the transistor at temperatures between -55°C and +150°C.
