Just bear with me for a little while as I’ll be documenting the main features, pinout, applications, and datasheet of this tiny component Tip42c. The 6A is collector current which indicates the value of loads this transistor can support. The 5V is the voltage across base and emitter terminals which projects the value of voltage required to bias this transistor. The voltage across collector and emitter terminals is 100V and the voltage across base and collector terminals is 100V. It is made up of silicon material and falls under the category of PNP transistors. Tip42c is a medium power transistor mainly used for amplification and switching purpose.

To values less than the limitations imposed by second breakdown. Second breakdown pulse limits are valid forĭuty cycles to 10% provided TJ (PK) ≤150☌, At high case temperatures, thermal limitation will reduce the power that can be handled The data of curve is base on TJ (PK) = 150☌ TC is variable depending on power level. Subjected to greater dissipation than curves indicate.

Operating area curves indicate IC-VCE limits of the transistor that must be observed for reliable operation i.e. There are two limitation on the power handling ability of a transistor: average junction temperature and second breakdown safe RB and RC Varied to Obtain Desired Current Levels Thermal Resistance Junction to Case Rθjc 1.92 ☌/W (1) Pulse Test: Pulse Width ≤ 300µs, Duty Cycle ≤ 2.0%.
