#2N3055 TRANSISTOR BLOWS UP TV#

Wtshymanski ( talk) 21:52, 23 March 2011 (UTC) If you wish to contest deletion, simply remove the PROD template per procedures at WP:PROD. 86.142.3.11 ( talk) 19:28, 23 March 2011 (UTC) As always WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS but I will tag these as well. There are several other transistor articles: TIP31, 2N2222, 2N3904 to name a few. Maybe it could be merged into a section of the History of the Transistor as the article currently only has computer and radio as typical hostorical uses of the transistor.Р”Р„ section 'Power Transistors' could tell the story of the evolution from the 3055 to a modern igbt brick that can run the heaviest of industrial equipment and railroad locomotive motors. It was used for many applications, and sometimes in very unusual ways (using 50 parallel in some very large regulators because there were no bigger transistors than the 3055) because it was the archetype of the power transistor and engineers had to make due with what they got. The 2N3055 is certainly one of the most impressive transistors of the 20th century, that thing is now in manufacture for almost 50 years. This article shouldnt be deleted as irrelevant, it should be extended. Hmm, all concerns appreciated as good intention, but, (see Davy's law I=dV/dT) A higher voltage unit, say driven at 100 volts, or a unit good for several megahertz fT is a much better choice, although more expensive.' 68.231.184.131 ( talk) 23:22, 10 November 2008 (UTC) Although this transistor is not a hi-frequency type and its switching time is too slow for its efficient use in this.

The thermal resistance from mounting baase to ambient is then of little relevance.

The 2 N 3055 should always be used with a heatsink because of its high power dissipation. Does anyone knows what is the thermal resistance caspule to air (Rca)?
