THE TRANSISTOR AND DIODE DATA BOOK
Since 1954, when Texas Instruments introduced the first silicon transistor to the marketplace, and later with the invention ofthe integrated circuit, Tl has been pre-eminent in the semiconductor industry.
New semiconductor products are introduced almost daily; new applications for semiconductor products are being found orcomtemplated at an ever-increasing rate, especially in the consumer and automotive fields. It is a difficult task for theequipment design engineer to stay abreast of all of the discrete and integrated-circuit products available to him in his effortsto choose the best device at the optimum cost effectiveness. It is the aim of Texas Instruments to provide the design engineerwith the maximum amount of accurate product data organized in such a manner that the pertinent data may be located inthe least amount of time.
Due to the amount of data involved, it would be inconvenient to present Tl's complete line of standard discrete products in asingle volume. Tl's broad line of power products are described in The Power Semiconductor Data Book for Design Engineers,First Edition (CC-404); optoelectronic products are presented in The Optoelectronics Data Book for Design Engineers, FirstEdition (CC-405). For ease of reference, all current devices listed in those two volumes are contained in the Type NumberIndex (Section O) herein. This 1248-page volume is designed to complement those two volumes and essentially complete thecurrent description of Tl's line of discrete semiconductors by adding all low-power silicon transistors and diodes. (Generally,"low-power" denotes free-air power dissipation of one watt or less.)
This volume contains over 800 silicon transistor types (grown-junction, multijunction, unijunction, and field-effecttransistors) and over 500 silicon diode types (switching, rectifying, voltage-regulating, voltage-variable-capacitance, andgeneral purpose diodes as well as multielement diode arrays and matrices), over 150 of which are being announced for thefirst time.
Although this volume offers specification and interchangeability data only for low-power silicon transistors and diodes,complete technical information for all Tl semiconductor products is available from your nearest Tl field-sales office, localauthorized Tl distributor, or by writing direct to: Marketing and Information Services, Texas Instruments Incorporated,P.O. Box 5012, Dallas, Texas 75222.
We hope that you will find The Transistor and Diode Data Book for Design Engineers a useful addition to your technicallibrary.

GLOSSARYIntroduction
This glossary contains letter symbols, abbreviations, terms, and definitions commonly used with semiconductor devices.Most of the information was obtained from JEDEC Publication No. 77. That document has over-riding authority whereany conflict may occur.
GENERALTerms and Definitions
Term Definitionanode The electrode from which the forward current flows within the
device.
anode ^j cathode > forward currentbipolar transistor A transistor that utilizes charge carriers of both polarities.
breakdown A phenomenon occuring in a reverse-biased semiconductorjunction, the initiation of which is observed as a transition from aregion of high small-signal resistance to a region of substantiallylower small-signal resistance for an increasing magnitude ofreverse current.
breakdown region A region of the volt-ampere characteristic beyond the initiationof breakdown for an increasing magnitude of reverse current.
breakdown voltage The voltage measured at a specified current in a breakdownregion. (Ref MIL-S-19500D Par. 20.3)
blocking A state of a semiconductor device or junction which essentiallyprevents the flow of current.
cathode The electrode to which the forward current flows within thedevice. For diagram, see "anode".
electrode An electrical and mechanical contact to a region of a semi-conductor device.
forward bias The bias which tends to produce current flow in the forwarddirection.
"-^T l> current flow
forward direction The direction of current flow which results when the p-typesemiconductor region is at a positive potential relative to then-type region. (Ref IEEE 253)
open-circuit A circuit in which halving the magnitude of the terminatingimpedance does not produce a change in the parameter beingmeasured greater than the required accuracy of the measurement.(Ref MIL-S-19500D Par. 20.8)
rectifying junction A junction in a semiconductor device which exhibits asym-metrical conductance.

GLOSSARYGENERAL
Term Definition
reverse bias The bias which tends to produce current flow in the reverse
direction.
~^M-+ current flow
reverse direction The direction of current flow which results when the n-typesemiconductor region is at a positive potential relative to the
p-type region.
semiconductor device A device whose essential characteristics are governed by the flowof charge carriers within a semiconductor.
semiconductor diode A semiconductor device having two terminals and exhibiting anonlinear voltage-current characteristic; in more restricted usage,
a semiconductor device which has the asymmetrical voltage-
current characteristic exemplified by a single p-n junction.
