Frequently Asked Questions

What is the recommended application for this device?

This N-Channel Switch is designed for low current DC and audio applications, providing excellent input stages for high impedance signal sources.

How should I calculate derating for elevated temperatures?

The total device dissipation must be derated (mW/°C) when operating above 25°C. The maximum rating is 350 mW at 25°C.

Are the Source and Drain pins interchangeable?

Yes, the manual notes that Source & Drain are interchangeable for these devices.

What are the typical Transconductance values (f=1.0 kHz)?

The typical range varies by model: PN4117 is 70-210 µmhos; PN4118 is 100-330 µmhos; and PN4119 is not specified in this section.
