TIP31C Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
The TIP31C can operate safely between -65°C to 150°C, but the maximum junction temperature should not exceed 150°C for reliable operation.
-
To ensure the TIP31C is fully turned on, the base-emitter voltage (VBE) should be at least 1.8V, and the base current should be at least 1/10th of the collector current.
-
The TIP31C can handle a maximum collector current of 3A, but this value can be derated based on the operating temperature and other factors.
-
Yes, the TIP31C can be used as a switch, but it's not ideal for high-frequency switching applications due to its relatively slow switching times (around 1-2 microseconds).
-
To protect the TIP31C from voltage spikes and transients, use a voltage clamp or a transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diode in parallel with the transistor.
