Technical Specifications
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Transistor | PNP bipolar junction transistor |
| Terminals | Three 4 mm sockets (E, B, C) |

How It Is Used
The unit is wired to variable DC supplies and meters with polarities set for a PNP device. Base current is set in steps while collector voltage and current are recorded, giving input and output characteristic curves and the current gain; repeating in each configuration shows how the arrangement changes behaviour.
