Talk:2N2222

message: PN2222 is not another name for a 2N2222.  The 2N2222 comes in a small metal can called a TO18.  The PN2222 comes in a plastic TO92 case.  The whole purpose of there being a PN2222 is to take advantage of the cheaper encapsulation.  The tradeoff is higher thermal resistance.  Referencing the respective datasheets would be useful.

message: The venerable BC548 is mentioned as a substitute, commonly found in electronics parts boxes. Many of the parameters, most notably Ic fall short. The more modern and closer European equivalent is the BC337. A BC337-40 would perform at least as well as the 2N2222 in applications where Vcb won't exceed 50v.https://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1789499.pdfhttps://www.farnell.com/datasheets/296640.pdfNick R Hill (talk) 09:54, 17 January 2024 (UTC)

message: Should this article still be a stub? It seems that it now has quite a bit of content, and I always though stubs were articles that were only a few sentences long. There are some other articles of a similar lenght that aren't marked as stubs.

message: This article is not only talking about this transistor as a part, but it does contain information about the history of the transistor.  This transistor is widely use for a long time and it should not be delete.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Geologie (talk • contribs) 23:13, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

message: Fellas, if it's not in a TO 18 case, it's not a JEDEC registered 2N2222.  That's kind of the *point* of the number, you order a 2N2222 from DigiKey and you get a device in a metal case with thus-and-so properties, no matter which mysterious Far Eastern fab hammered it together. If it's not about *this* transistor, put it in an article called "Development of silicon transistors". --Wtshymanski (talk) 19:34, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

message: Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to  on 2N2222. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add  after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add  to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
*Added archive https://web.archive.org/20090930205649/http://datasheetreference.com:80/2n2222-datasheet.html to http://datasheetreference.com/2n2222-datasheet.html
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
Cheers.—cyberbot IITalk to my owner:Online 01:50, 10 February 2016 (UTC)

message: We used to call "lower current at medium voltage" 30 amps at 4160 volts.  Meaningless qualifiers do not serve the reader well. But what can you expect from a parts list entry? --Wtshymanski (talk) 04:03, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
