TIP31C Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The TIP31C is a silicon NPN power transistor manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for general-purpose amplifier and switching applications. It is housed in a compact TO-220 package, making it suitable for various electronic designs.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of 100V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 3A. The transistor also offers a peak collector current (ICM) of 5A and a base current (IB) of 1A. Its saturation voltage (Vce Sat) is specified at 1.2V maximum at 375mA base current and 3A collector current. The DC current gain (hFE) is a minimum of 10 at 3A collector current and 4V collector-emitter voltage.

 

Thermal performance is supported by a total power dissipation rating of 40W at 25°C case temperature and 2W at 25°C ambient temperature. The operating and storage junction temperature range is from -65°C to +150°C. Thermal resistance from junction-to-case is 3.125°C/W, and junction-to-ambient is 62.5°C/W.

 

The TIP31C is designed for through-hole mounting and comes in a TO-220-3 package. It is RoHS compliant and Pb-free, aligning with modern environmental standards.
