The TIP42C is a PNP epitaxial silicon transistor manufactured by STMicroelectronics, designed for medium power linear and switching applications. It features a maximum collector-emitter voltage (VCEO) of -100V and a continuous collector current (IC) of -6A, with a pulse capability of -10A. The device can dissipate up to 65W of power at 25°C case temperature.
Key electrical characteristics include a DC current gain (hFE) ranging from 15 to 75, a collector-emitter saturation voltage (VCE(sat)) of 1.5V maximum at 6A, and a base-emitter on-voltage (VBE(on)) of 2.0V maximum. The current gain bandwidth product (fT) is 3MHz minimum.
Packaged in a standard TO-220-3 configuration, the TIP42C is suitable for through-hole mounting. Its operating junction temperature range is -65°C to 150°C, with a storage temperature range also from -65°C to 150°C.
The TIP42C serves as a complementary part to the TIP41 series, making it suitable for complementary push-pull applications in audio amplifiers and power supplies.
