High-Voltage Transistor Arrays
The CA3146A, CA3146, CA3183A, and CA3183 are general
purpose high voltage silicon NPN transistor arrays on a
common monolithic substrate.
TypesCA3146AandCA3146consistoffivetransistorswithtwo
of the transistors connected to form a differentially connected
pair. These types are recommended for low power applications
in the DC through VHF range. (CA3146A and CA3146 are high
voltage versions of the popular predecessor type CA3046.)
Types CA3183A and CA3183 consist of five high current
transistors with independent connections for each transistor.
In addition two of these transistors (Q
1
and Q
2
) are matched
at low current (i.e., 1mA) for applications where offset
parameters are of special importance. A special substrate
terminal is also included for greater flexibility in circuit
design. (CA3183A and CA3183 are high voltage versions of
the popular predecessor type CA3083.)
The types with an “A” suffix are premium versions of their
non-“A” counterparts and feature tighter control of
breakdown voltages making them more suitable for higher
voltage applications.

Application Note AN5296 “Application of the CA3018
Integrated Circuit Transistor Array.”
