2N3906 PNP General Purpose Transistor 40V 200mA – TO-92 Package The 2N3906 is a commonly used PNP bipolar junction transistor intended for general-purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications. It is designed for low electric current and power and medium voltage and can operate at moderately high speeds. 2N3906 is a semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power. It is composed of semiconductor material usually with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit. A voltage or current applied to one pair of the transistor’s terminals controls the current through another pair of terminals. Because the controlled (output) power can be higher than the controlling (input) power, a transistor can amplify a signal. Today, some transistors are packaged individually, but many more are found embedded in integrated circuits.
