Re: Transistor Choice in radio project
Hi,
The OC71 had identical ratings in both the data books:-
hfe typ (Ic = 1mA, VCE - -2V ) 41
The OC71 was a first generation general purpose transistor for low power applications
( Pto max. 75mW ). It was generally OK for audio applications but no good for rf applications, OC45 (was used for IF frequencies ( 470 Kcs ) whereas the OC44 was used as a mixer ( frequency changer ). Most early transistors had limitations as to maximum useable frequency.
Figures quoted in most data books were generally the minimum or average values to expect.
