STMicroelectronics Darlington Transistor PNP 2 A 60 V TO-220 Package TIP115

STMicroelectronics TIP115 is a PNP Darlington transistor designed to handle a maximum continuous collector current of 2 A and a collector emitter voltage of up to 60 V encapsulated in a TO-220 package. This transistor features a high minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 500, ensuring efficient signal amplification for demanding industrial and electronic applications.

Its robust thermal rating allows for a maximum power dissipation of 50 W, making it suitable for power switching and amplification tasks in industrial, manufacturing, consumer electronics, and automotive systems that require reliable performance over a wide temperature range from -65°C to 150°C.

The TO-220 through hole package with 3 pins facilitates easy mounting and integration into existing PCB layouts. Its electrical properties include a maximum collector emitter saturation voltage of 2.5 V and maximum emitter base voltage of 5 V, contributing to reduced power losses and improved efficiency.

This discrete semiconductor device contains a single transistor element per chip and does not have any specific automotive certification but is widely used across general-purpose power transistor applications.

Typical use cases include power drivers, relay drivers, output stages in audio and switching power supplies, and other applications where a high gain transistor is required. The transistor's compact size combined with high performance makes it an essential component in many industrial and electronic circuitry designs.
