Triode, also known as bipolar transistor and transistor, is a kind of semiconductor device with current control. Its function is to amplify weak signals into electrical signals with large amplitude, and it is also used as a contactless switch. In this issue, Hottech introduces TIP42, which is a PNP medium power transistor. It is widely used as a transistor for signal amplification and audio power amplifier, and can be used as a complementary symmetrical transistor with TIP41 NPN transistor. It can be used for current signal amplification and switching circuits.

Characteristics of TIP42

This product produced by Hottech has good electrical characteristics. Its collector-base voltage is -40V, collector-emitter voltage is -40V, emitter-base voltage is -5V, collector current is -6A, minimum magnification is 15, maximum magnification is 75, and dissipation is 2W.
