This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If for medium-power variants like 2N3055
Transistors exceeding 1W dissipation move to the higher dissipation subheading.
If mounted on circuit boards as assemblies
Board-mounted transistors classify as electrical apparatus rather than discrete devices.
If photosensitive versions like phototransistors
Light-sensitive transistors fall under photosensitive semiconductor devices.
