TIP42A Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The TIP42A is a PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for general purpose amplifier and switching applications. Manufactured by NXP Semiconductors, this component offers a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 60V and a continuous collector current rating of 6A.

 

It is supplied in a TO-220 package, which is suitable for through-hole mounting. The TIP42A is a complementary silicon power transistor, indicating it can be paired with NPN transistors for complementary push-pull applications.

 

Key electrical characteristics include its PNP transistor type. While specific details on saturation voltage, DC current gain, and transition frequency are not provided in the available data, the device is rated for 60V and 6A, making it suitable for medium-power linear and switching applications.
