TIP42CG Overview

This device has a DC current gain of 15 @ 3A 4V, which is the ratio between the collector current and the base current.This design offers maximum flexibility with a collector emitter saturation voltage of 1.5V.Saturation of VCE means Ic is at its maximum value (saturated), and VCE saturation (Max) is 1.5V @ 600mA, 6A.An emitter's base voltage can be kept at 5V to gain high efficiency.Its current rating is -6A, which means that it can sustain a maximum current for an indefinite period of time without degrading too much.Single BJT transistor contains a transSingle BJT transistorion frequency of 3MHz.A maximum collector current of 6A volts can be achieved.
