TIP142 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
The maximum collector current for each transistor in the TIP142 array is 1A.
-
Yes, the TIP142 can be used as a switch for high-voltage applications up to 100V, but ensure that the collector-emitter voltage (Vce) and collector-base voltage (Vcb) ratings are not exceeded.
-
To calculate the power dissipation of the TIP142, use the formula: Pd = (Vce x Ic) + (Vbe x Ib), where Pd is the power dissipation, Vce is the collector-emitter voltage, Ic is the collector current, Vbe is the base-emitter voltage, and Ib is the base current.
-
The minimum base current required to turn on the transistor in the TIP142 array is typically around 1-2mA, but this can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
-
The TIP142 is not suitable for high-frequency switching applications due to its relatively slow switching times (turn-on time: 2us, turn-off time: 3us). For high-frequency applications, consider using a faster switching transistor or a dedicated high-frequency transistor array.
