Product details
Overview
KSA1370FBU from Fairchild Semiconductor is a PNP epitaxial silicon transistor rated for -200 V collector-emitter and collector-base voltage, -100 mA DC collector current, 1.0 W power dissipation, and 150 MHz current gain bandwidth product; it is used in CRT display video output stages requiring high-voltage switching and low reverse transfer capacitance.
For engineers reviewing the KSA1370FBU datasheet, pinout, applications, or equivalent options, this device is selected for high-voltage PNP amplification and switching where Cre ≤ 1.7 pF, VCE(sat) ≤ -0.6 V at -20 mA/-2 mA, and hFE = 100–320 at -10 mA/-10 V are critical design constraints.
Technical Context
This PNP bipolar junction transistor operates with emitter-grounded configuration in linear and saturated switching modes. Its high breakdown voltages (-200 V VCEO, -200 V VCBO) and low Cre (1.7 pF) support stable high-voltage video signal amplification without parasitic coupling.
The device delivers DC current gain of 100–320 at VCE = -10 V and IC = -10 mA, with saturation voltage of -0.6 V under IC = -20 mA/IB = -2 mA drive, enabling efficient active-load switching in CRT deflection and output driver circuits.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| VCEO | -200 V - supports operation in high-voltage CRT video output stages without breakdown |
| hFE | 100–320 - enables stable current amplification across production lots at -10 mA bias |
| VCE(sat) | -0.6 V - ensures low conduction loss when fully turned on with -2 mA base drive |
| fT | 150 MHz - provides sufficient bandwidth for video-frequency signal handling up to ~20 MHz fundamental |
| Cre | 1.7 pF - minimizes unwanted feedback in high-gain video amplifier configurations |
| PC | 1.0 W - allows continuous operation at elevated ambient temperatures with appropriate heatsinking |
| IC (DC) | -100 mA - defines maximum steady-state collector current before thermal derating applies |
Pinout & Package
Package: TO-92L (3-lead plastic through-hole), lead spacing 2.54 mm, case height ≤ 1.00 mm, body width 3.90 mm.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Emitter | Current exit terminal; connected to ground or low-impedance return path in common-emitter video amplifier |
| 2 | Collector | High-voltage output node; interfaces directly with CRT anode supply or deflection yoke winding |
| 3 | Base | Control input; requires negative bias relative to emitter to turn on PNP device |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| High breakdown voltage | VCEO = VCB0 = -200 V enables direct use in 150–180 V CRT anode driver circuits |
| Low reverse transfer capacitance | Cre = 1.7 pF reduces Miller-effect instability in wideband video amplifiers |
| High fT | 150 MHz fT supports flat frequency response up to ~20 MHz for analog video signals |
| Stable hFE range | 100–320 hFE at -10 mA ensures predictable biasing across temperature and unit-to-unit variation |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar PNP high-voltage transistor applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| KSA992FBU | VCEO = -160 V, fT = 120 MHz, Cre = 2.0 pF | Lower voltage rating limits use in >160 V CRT supplies; otherwise compatible in lower-voltage video drivers | Select when system supply is ≤150 V and cost sensitivity outweighs need for 200 V margin |
| MJD2955G | TO-220 package, IC = -12 A, VCEO = -60 V, fT = 3 MHz | Higher current but much lower voltage and bandwidth; suited for power regulation, not video amplification | Use only in non-video, high-current PNP switching roles where voltage stress <60 V |
Compared with KSA1370FBU, KSA992FBU trades 40 V breakdown margin and 30 MHz bandwidth for broader availability, while MJD2955G serves entirely different high-current/low-voltage applications-neither is pin-compatible, and both require circuit redesign for substitution.

FAQ
What is the maximum collector-emitter voltage rating for KSA1370FBU?
The KSA1370FBU has a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) rating of -200 V at TA = 25°C. This rating is confirmed in the Absolute Maximum Ratings table and applies under DC conditions with proper thermal management. Exceeding this voltage risks avalanche breakdown and permanent device failure. The KSA1370FBU must be operated within this limit in all CRT video output and high-voltage amplifier designs.
Is KSA1370FBU suitable for video amplifier applications?
Yes, the KSA1370FBU is explicitly designated for CRT display video output applications per its original Fairchild documentation. Its 150 MHz fT, low Cre (1.7 pF), and -200 V breakdown make it suitable for wideband analog video amplification. The KSA1370FBU maintains stable hFE and low VCE(sat) across video signal frequencies, supporting linearity and minimal phase shift in legacy monitor designs.
What is the pin configuration of KSA1370FBU in TO-92L package?
The KSA1370FBU uses a TO-92L package with standardized lead assignment: Pin 1 is Emitter, Pin 2 is Collector, and Pin 3 is Base - verified from Fairchild's package drawing and marking diagram. This configuration is consistent across all KSA1370 variants and must be observed during PCB layout to avoid functional failure. The KSA1370FBU requires correct orientation during manual or automated assembly.
Does KSA1370FBU have a specified junction temperature limit?
Yes, the KSA1370FBU has a maximum junction temperature (TJ) rating of 150°C, as stated in the Absolute Maximum Ratings section. Operation beyond this temperature accelerates degradation and may cause thermal runaway. Derating curves in the datasheet show safe operating area reduction above 25°C case temperature. Thermal design for the KSA1370FBU must ensure TJ remains ≤150°C under worst-case load and ambient conditions.
What is the typical DC current gain (hFE) of KSA1370FBU at standard test conditions?
The KSA1370FBU exhibits a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 100 to 320 when measured at VCE = -10 V and IC = -10 mA, per the Electrical Characteristics table. This wide but guaranteed range reflects process variation and supports robust bias network design. The KSA1370FBU's hFE remains stable across temperature, making it suitable for production-critical CRT video circuits where gain consistency is essential.
