TIP36CW  

Single Bipolar Transistors

TIP36CW Description

The TIP36CW from STMicroelectronics is a high-power PNP bipolar junction transistor (BJT) designed for demanding switching and amplification applications. Housed in a robust TO-247-3 package, it offers a collector-emitter voltage (Vce) rating of 100V and a maximum collector current (Ic) of 25A, making it suitable for high-current circuits. With a power dissipation capability of 125W and an operating junction temperature (TJ) of up to 150°C, this transistor excels in thermally challenging environments. Its low saturation voltage (4V @ 5A, 25A) ensures efficient switching performance, while a DC current gain (hFE) of 10 @ 15A, 4V provides stable amplification characteristics.

TIP36CW Features

• High Power Handling: 125W max power dissipation for robust performance.
• Low Saturation Voltage: 4V @ 5A, 25A minimizes power loss in switching applications.
