Instructions for Use:

1. Handling Precautions:

   • Avoid exposing the transistor to temperatures outside the operating range.
   • Use appropriate heat sinks if the power dissipation exceeds the rated value.

2. Mounting:

   • Ensure proper alignment of the pins (E, B, C) during soldering.
   • Apply thermal paste between the transistor and heat sink for better heat dissipation.

3. Biasing:

   • For optimal performance, ensure the base current is sufficient to drive the collector current.
   • Use a resistor in series with the base to limit the base current and prevent damage.

4. Storage:

   • Store in a dry, cool place to prevent moisture damage.
   • Keep away from static sources to avoid damage to the sensitive components.

5. Testing:

   • Use a multimeter to check the continuity and resistance between the pins before installation.
   • Test the transistor under controlled conditions to ensure it meets the specified parameters.
