TIP120TU Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

  • The maximum collector current for each Darlington pair is 5A, but this can be limited by the power dissipation and thermal characteristics of the device.
  • To ensure SOA compliance, ensure that the device operates within the recommended voltage and current limits, and that the power dissipation is within the specified limits. Also, consider the thermal characteristics and heat sinking requirements.
  • The minimum base current required to saturate the Darlington pair is typically around 10-20mA, but this can vary depending on the specific application and operating conditions.
  • While the TIP120TU can be used as a switch, it is not suitable for high-frequency applications due to its relatively slow switching times (around 10-20us) and high saturation voltage. For high-frequency applications, consider using a faster switching device.
  • To protect the TIP120TU from back-EMF, use a flyback diode (also known as a freewheeling diode) in parallel with the inductive load to absorb the back-EMF energy.
