2N4401 transistor

The 2N4401 is not easy to acquire in germany, I don't know how it's with the rest of europe but I conveniently just won 300 on ebay.

I figured those would be good to have if I ever make a NESp...

Anyway, if anyone in germany or in europe needs one, I'd send them to you for the price of shipping. Just throwing that out there, so people searching the forum can PM me about it.

They're also a good replacement for 2N3904's.

Where are they used?

Anyway, 2N3904s you can acquire at reichelt electronics

4401's or 3904's?

3904s

2N3904s are generally used as switching transistors. They are commonly found in many types of electronics.

...Oh.

I thought you said they were used in some kind of circuit that is relevant to modding consoles, and that the 2N4401 are a good replacement. I guess you meant it the other way around

Guess we got a little mixed up.

You were saying that you got a lot of 4401's. You need them for a portable NES.

I just wanted to point out that they also work in many other projects, instead of 3904's.
