TIP126 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The maximum collector current for each Darlington pair is 1 A, but it's recommended to derate the current to 0.5 A for reliable operation.

  • The base-emitter voltage (VBE) for the TIP126 is typically around 1.8-2.2 V, but it can vary depending on the operating conditions. You can use the datasheet's VBE vs. IC graph to estimate the VBE for your specific application.

  • The maximum power dissipation for the TIP126 is 1 W per Darlington pair, but it's recommended to derate the power dissipation to 0.5 W per pair for reliable operation.

  • The TIP126 is designed as a switch, but it can also be used as an amplifier in certain applications. However, its gain is relatively low, so it's not suitable for high-gain amplifier applications.

  • To protect the TIP126 from overheating, ensure good heat sinking, use a heat sink if necessary, and avoid operating the device at high temperatures (above 150°C) for extended periods.
