Moreover with its 10 watt output feature it can be used in the output stage of an audio amplifier or it can also be used separately as an amplifier.

Where We Can Use it & How to Use:

2SD882 can be used in variety of different application. For example It can be used in power supply circuits, voltage regulator circuits, battery charger circuits, driving motors, switching any load under 3A etc. A part from the above applications it will also perform when used to amplify audio signals and it can be used in small audio amplifiers, output stage of receiver circuits, bell circuits, audio related circuits etc.

Applications:

Relay Driver

Audio Amplifier

Switching Loads under 3A

Darlington Pairs

How to Safely Long Run in a Circuit:

To make get best performance from this transistor it is suggested to not drive load more than 3A, always stay below 200mA from the maximum load ratings to be safe and always use a proper heatsink. Do not operate the device above 30V and always use a suitable base resistor. Do not operate or store the transistor in temperature below -55 centigrade and above +150 centigrade.
