The TIP120 is a high-performance NPN Epitaxial Darlington Transistor manufactured by Texas Instruments. It is designed for medium power linear and switching applications, offering a complementary pair to the TIP125/126/127 series. This transistor features a robust TO-220 package, suitable for through-hole mounting.
Key electrical characteristics include a Collector-Emitter Voltage (VCEO) of up to 100V (depending on variant), a continuous Collector Current (IC) of 5A, and a peak Collector Current (ICP) of 8A. The DC Current Gain (hFE) is a significant 1000 minimum at specified test conditions. Saturation voltages are kept relatively low, with VCE(sat) at a maximum of 2.0V at 3A collector current and 12mA base current.
The TIP120 is well-suited for applications requiring high current gain and moderate power handling. Its complementary nature allows for versatile circuit designs in power supply regulation, audio amplification, and general-purpose switching tasks. The TO-220 package facilitates easy integration into standard PCB layouts and provides adequate thermal dissipation for many applications, with a maximum collector dissipation of 65W at 25°C case temperature.
