Abstract :
In this paper results of a study to determine the temperature dependence of the electrical characteristics of Type 1698 and 1768 transistors are given. Variations of transistor parameters as a function of temperature are given for each type of unit. Cumulative distribution curves are also given for the transistors studied. The implications of the results obtained with regard to transistor operation at elevated temperatures are discussed briefly.
