What are the key features of TIP115?

  • PNP Darlington transistor with built-in base-emitter diode and resistor
  • 60 V collector-emitter breakdown voltage (VCEO)
  • 2 A maximum continuous collector current (IC)
  • Minimum DC current gain (hFE) of 500
  • 3-pin TO-220AB through-hole package per JEDEC-95
  • Single-element configuration for simplified circuit design

What is TIP115 used for?

The TIP115 is well suited for driving inductive loads such as relays, solenoids, and small DC motors where high current gain simplifies base drive circuitry. Its 2 A collector current and 60 V breakdown rating also make it a good fit for power switching, linear voltage regulation, and general-purpose PNP amplification stages in industrial and consumer electronics.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much collector current can the TIP115 handle in continuous operation?

The TIP115 is rated for a maximum continuous collector current (IC) of 2 A, with a collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 60 V, making it suitable for moderate-power switching and driver circuits.

Why is the TO-220 package used for the TIP115's thermal design?

The TIP115 ships in a 3-pin TO-220AB through-hole package, which provides a metal tab for heatsink mounting to dissipate power efficiently when switching loads up to 2 A and 60 V.

What types of circuits benefit most from the TIP115's Darlington configuration?

Its built-in Darlington configuration delivers a minimum current gain (hFE) of 500, letting designers drive 2 A inductive loads such as relays and motors directly from a low-current microcontroller or logic-level output.
