Description

The BSW19 is a silicon PNP switching transistor listed in the Agenda radioelectronistului (2nd edition, 1989) among the bipolar transistors made in Romania by IPRS Băneasa, in a TO-18 package [1].

Coded as (Pro Electron system) [2]:

Part Meaning
B base material with an activation energy of 1.0–1.3 eV, e.g. silicon (1.1 eV)
S low-power switching transistor
W19 serial number for components for professional use: a letter (X, Y, Z…, with no coded meaning) and two digits (10–99)

hFE (h21E) measured at IC = 10 mA, VCE = 1 V; Vce sat at IC = 50 mA [1].
