TRANS PNP 40V 0.2A TO-92
The 2N3906 is a commonly used PNP bipolar junction transistor intended for general purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications. This article mainly covers pinout, datasheet, quivalent, circuit and more details.
2N3906
2N3906 is a special purpose transistor that has been generally used for low current medium voltage and low power switching as well as amplification, but it is most suitable for high-speed switching. In the market, it is available in the plastic body and TO-92 dip package. Because its collector current range is 10μA to 100mA, therefore, it could be used for low current to high current gain.

Small Load Switch Transistor With High Gain And Low Saturation Voltage
The 2N3906 is a commonly used PNP transistor. It very much similar to the bc557 transistor except for that it has high collector to emitter voltage and hence high voltage loads can be toggled. This transistor has only a gain value of 300, hence not suitable for amplifier circuits.
So if you looking for a PNP transistor that could switch high voltage loads within 0.2A then this 2N3906 transistor might be the right choice for you.
