COMPLEMENTARY SILICON POWER
■ SGS-THOMSON PREFERRED SALESTYPES
DESCRIPTIO N
The TIP41A, TIP41B and TIP41C are silicon
epitaxial-base NPN power transistors in Jedec
TO-220 plastic package, intented for use in
medium power linear and switching appl ic ations.
The complementary PNP types are TIP42A,
TIP42B and TIP42C.
