Identify transistor H669A

Nov 03, 2008 7 Replies

Hi,



can anyone identify this transistor? Marked H 669A


Its in a To 126 size all plastic package but a fair bit thicker, one I have not seen before. (why?) Its an NPN with lead out BCE. Its directly on the heatsink of a power amp in series with a thermistor, so is either part of the bias circuitry or temperature sense. I don't have a schematic.


Cheers,


Gareth.

Ah, just realised that the legend is actually on the back of the device - it was mounted legend side to the heatsink, and on closer inspection the pins are closest to the legend side, so it looks like you might well be correct.

It is a peculiar package, one I haven't seen before. (This is from a cheap Chinese no name power amplifier, so maybe this is a Chinese part?).

Thanks,

Gareth.

Frank, that is the one.

Thanks,

Frank gets first prize, its a Chinese 2SD669A :)

Let me know when you source a Chinese one that works then, I'll stick with Hitachi thanks. Surprised they even bothered to put numbers on it.
