TIP120 is a type of bipolar junction transistor (BJT) that is commonly used in electronic circuits. It is designed to provide high-current switching and amplification capabilities, and is typically used in applications such as motor control, switching power supplies, and audio amplifiers. The TIP120 transistor has a maximum current rating of 5 A and a maximum voltage rating of 60 volts.
The TIP120 transistor is available in a TO-220 through-hole package, which makes it easy to install on printed circuit boards. It is also RoHS compliant, meaning it is free of hazardous substances.
BJTs, such as the TIP120, are three-terminal devices that can be used as switches or amplifiers. They are commonly used in electronic circuits to control the flow of current or voltage, or to amplify weak signals. The TIP120 transistor is a type of NPN transistor, which means it has a negative-positive-negative configuration of its layers.
