MJ4035 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended operating voltage range for the MJ4035?
  The recommended operating voltage range for the MJ4035 is 10V to 30V, with a typical voltage of 15V.
• How do I ensure the MJ4035 is properly biased for optimal performance?
  To ensure proper biasing, connect the base of the transistor to the emitter through a resistor (Rb) and a capacitor (Cb) in parallel. The value of Rb should be around 1kΩ to 2kΩ, and Cb should be around 10nF to 100nF.
• What is the maximum collector current rating for the MJ4035?
  The maximum collector current rating for the MJ4035 is 10A.
• How do I protect the MJ4035 from overheating?
  To protect the MJ4035 from overheating, ensure proper heat sinking, and consider using a heat sink with a thermal resistance of around 1°C/W. Also, avoid operating the transistor at maximum power dissipation for extended periods.
• What is the typical switching frequency for the MJ4035?
  The typical switching frequency for the MJ4035 is up to 100 kHz, but it can be used at higher frequencies with proper design and layout considerations.
