TIP146 Overview

This device has a DC current gain of 1000 @ 5A 4V, which is the ratio between the collector current and the base current.Vce saturation?means Ic is at its maximum value(saturated), and the vce saturation(Max) is 3V @ 40mA, 10A.Maintaining the continuous collector voltage at 10A is essential for high efficiency.The base voltage of the emitter can be kept at 5V to achieve high efficiency.A fuse's current rating indicates how much current it will be able to carry over an indefinite period, and this device has a current rating of (-10A).A maximum collector current of 10A volts can be achieved.
