TIP32G

The ON Semiconductor TIP32G is a PNP silicon power transistor 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 40V and a continuous collector current (IC) of 3A. The device offers a peak collector current of 5A and a continuous base current of 1A. Power dissipation is rated at 40W at a case temperature of 25°C, with a derating above this temperature. The transistor exhibits a DC current gain (hFE) of at least 10 at 3A and 4V, and a maximum Vce saturation of 1.2V at 375mA and 3A.

Thermal management is facilitated by a junction-to-case thermal resistance of 3.125°C/W and a junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of 62.5°C/W. The operating and storage junction temperature range is from -65°C to +150°C.

This transistor is suitable for applications requiring moderate power handling and amplification capabilities. Its through-hole mounting type and TO-220 package simplify integration into circuit boards.
