The 2N5416 is a high-gain, low-noise small-signal NPN transistor manufactured by Complementary Devices Inc. (CDIL). It is commonly used in a variety of applications, including audio amplifiers, switching circuits, communication circuits, and power circuits. It is designed for operation in the range of -55°C to +150°C.
The 2N5416 is capable of providing up to 500mA of current, with a gain of around 110 at 1kHz with a collector-emitter voltage of 5V. It features a high input impedance, low noise levels, and robust operation over temperature range and power supply changes. The 2N5416 is also equipped with integrated protection diode networks which protect the device against transient over-voltage.
