Introduction to TIP41

Hello friends, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, we are gonna have a look at detailed Introduction to TIP41. It is an NPN power transistor. It exists in (TO-220) malleable suite which marks this expedient appropriate for acoustic, power rectilinear and swapping submissions. Its corresponding transistor is TIP42. It is intended by joining three (3) components of semiconductor material by doping with different materials. It's center portion is base which is tinny and the other two outer parts are prominently doped than the base. Several transistors can strengthen a trivial current which will then be leading adequate to effort attention or other greater current maneuvers. These discretion are proficient to notice a shift in voltage and work as a switch. The TIP41 is a collective transistor which is inexpensive and serene to use for several proposals. In today’s post, we will have a look at its shield, smashup, deviation, entitlements, etc. I will also share some links where I have associated it with other microcontrollers. You can also get more material about it in comments, I will guide you more about it. So, let’s get started with a basic Introduction to TIP41. 

Introduction to TIP41

• It is an NPN power transistor. It exists in (TO-220) malleable suite which marks this expedient appropriate for acoustic, power rectilinear and swapping submissions.
• It is an intermediate power consuming transistor used in submissions where working circumstances of the lesser signal transistor may be a minute strained.

• These diplomacies proposal power assessments which are regular and are mostly cast-off in transportable power sources and amplifier circuits.
•  Cogitate by these expedients as buffers for transistors output phases in higher power acoustic intensifier schemes or as output phases in intermediate power yield acoustic amplifier circuits.
• To evade impairment, constantly usage a heat absorber if extreme power from this expedient is prerequisite as the transistor compendium has a boundary to the quantity of temperature it can dispel from the transistor connection.

Pinout of TIP41

• These are the main pinout of  TIP41.

  Pin#	Type	Parameters
  Pin#1	Emitter	Current initiates by the emitter, it is characteristically linked to ground.
  Pin#2	Base	It achieves the biasing of the transistor and works to turn ON or OFF the transistor.
  Pin#3	Collector	Current travels in over collector, it is usually related to loading.

  Let's see a diagram of the pinout.

Features of TIP41

• These are some important features of TIP41 which are discussed here.
  • It is an NPN junction transistor.
  • The voltage at its collector and emitter terminals is a hundred volts.
  • It voltage at collector and base terminals are a hundred voltages.
  • The voltage at emitter and base terminals is five volts.
  • It uses current collector six amperes.
  • Its dissipation power is minus sixty-five watts (-65).
  • Its gain is from minus fifteen to seventy-five volts.
  • Its transition frequency is minus three megahertz.
  • It's Working and Storing Connection Temperature Range from minus sixty-five to plus one fifty (-65 to +150 °C).

Ratings of TIP41

• Now we study the different rating parameters of TIP41 which are described below.

Symbols	Ratings	Parameters
VCBO	100 volts	These are the voltage across collector and base.
VCEO	100 volts	These are the voltage around collector and emitter.
VEBO	5 volts	These are the voltage around emitter and base.
IC	6 amperes	It is the current at collector which is dc.
ICM	10 amperes	It is the pulse of collector current.
IB	3 amperes	It is the current at the base.
Pc	65 watts	It is the power dissipation at  Collector (TC=25°C).
TJ	150 C	It is the Junction Temperature.

Electrical characteristicsTIP41

• After reading of rating parameters now we study the electrical characteristics of TIP41.

Symbols	Ratings	Parameters
ICEO	0.7 mA	It is the value of the cut-off current the collector.
IEBO	1 A	It is the value of emitter cut off the current.
ICES	0.4 mA	It is the value of collector cut-off current.
VCEO	100 V	These are the collector and emitter supporting voltage.
VCE	1.5 V	These are the collector and emitter supporting voltage.
VBE	2 V	It is the value of voltage across base and emitter terminals.
hFE	75	It the value of DC current gain.

  So it was all about TIP41 if you have any question about it ask in comments. Thanks for reading. Take care until the next tutorial.
