1N4148 vs 1N914 or 1N4448 Many young engineers having trouble with so many part numbers of general-purpose switching diodes and don’t know how to make the selection. “1N914 and 1N4148 diodes can be used interchangeably. 1N4148 is considered as advanced version of 1N914 but technically there is not much difference....
2N3904 vs 2N2222 Whenever you search for 2N3904, Google will suggest that 2N3904 vs 2N2222 as a popular search. Here are some popular comments from blogs. A 2N3904 can handle up to 200mA (milliamperes) of current flow from the emitter to the collector terminal. A 2N2222 can handle up to...
The Ultimate advantage of Power MOSFET over Power Bipolar Transistor There are various discussions found on the Internet about the advantages of Power MOSFET over Power BJT. MOSFETs are portable, use low power, draw no current and are compatible with silicon processing technology. Science.com link BJT will consume more power...
This article was first written by baldengineer.com His choices are: 2N3904 NPN Small Signal Transistor 2N3906 PNP Small Signal Transistor TIP120, Darlington Transistor FQP30N06L N-Channel Power Mosfet The first 2 choices are obviously the best to have, but the others are subject to debate. I remember the day I worked...
