Description

The EFT306 is a high-frequency, low-power germanium PNP transistor made in section 2200 (germanium devices) of IPRS Băneasa [1]. The licence for the section’s alloyed indium–germanium transistors – the SFT/EFT, AC and AD series and the ASZ18, AUY31 and AUY32 power transistors in TO3 cases – and for its EFD point-contact diodes belonged to the French firm SESCOSEM of Saint-Égrève, near Grenoble [1]. The section’s lines came from the Electronica works in 1962, and it stopped making germanium devices in 1982; having only the cover of IPRS’s germanium catalogue, the book reconstructs the list of the section’s products from prospectuses and publications up to 1989 [1].

The Agenda radioelectronistului (2nd edition, 1989) lists the EFT306 among the bipolar transistors made by IPRS Băneasa, in the group of high-frequency, low-power germanium PNP transistors, in a TO-1A package [2].

Small-signal current gain h21e measured at IC = 1 mA [2].
