ON Semiconductor, a supplier of silicon solutions for
energy efficient electronics, has introduced a series of small signal
transistors that are qualified in accordance with the MIL-PRF-19500 and
MIL-STD-750 standards for discrete semiconductors broadly used in
military and aerospace equipment.
ON Semiconductor already has a strong reputation in the
military and aerospace sectors for digital and mixed-signal ASICs and custom
foundry services,” said Vince Hopkin, vice president of the Digital, Mil-Aero
and Image Sensor division at ON Semiconductor.
This new series of discrete devices will further enhance
the solutions and technologies we offer military designers and purchasers. Not
only will these products deliver high reliability in extreme operating
conditions, they will also be supported for product lifecycles that match the
long-term supply requirements of military and aerospace applications,” Hopkin added.
The ON Semiconductor small signal PNP and NPN silicon
epitaxial switching transistors are on the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency (DLA)
Land and Maritime Qualified Products List (QPL) and available in versions that
meet JAN, JANTX and JANTXV quality levels.
All product versions are supplied in hermetically sealed
metal can packages and are designed for an extended operating and storage
junction temperature range of -65 °C to +200 °C.
Target applications for the MIL-PRF-19500-qualified
devices include switching and linear amplification in missile guidance,
munitions, radio communications, commercial and military avionics and other
military and aerospace systems where high reliability in harsh conditions and
longevity of product supply are key design considerations.
During 2011, ON Semiconductor
plans to add more transistors to its range of MIL-PRF-19500-qualified parts
along with other discrete devices including Zener diodes, Schottky diodes and
rectifiers.
The ON Semiconductor MIL-PRF-19500-qualified transistors
are competitively priced and production quantities are immediately available
through ON Semiconductor’s distribution channels.
