Alternate Parts for TIP120
This table gives cross-reference parts and alternative options found for TIP120. The Form Fit Function (FFF) tab will give you the options that are more likely to serve as direct pin-to-pin alternates or drop-in parts. The Functional Equivalents tab will give you options that are likely to match the same function of TIP120, but it may not fit your design. Always verify details of parts you are evaluating, as these parts are offered as suggestions for what you are looking for and are not guaranteed.
TIP120 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
The maximum collector current that can be safely switched with the TIP120 is 5A per channel, but this value can be limited by the power dissipation and the junction temperature.
-
The power dissipation of the TIP120 can be calculated using the formula: Pd = (Vce * Ic) + (Vbe * Ib), where Vce is the collector-emitter voltage, Ic is the collector current, Vbe is the base-emitter voltage, and Ib is the base current.
-
The minimum base current required to fully saturate the TIP120 depends on the collector current, but a general rule of thumb is to use a base current of at least 1/10th of the collector current.
-
No, the TIP120 is not designed to switch AC loads. It is intended for switching DC loads only. Attempting to switch AC loads with the TIP120 can lead to premature failure or damage to the device.
-
To protect the TIP120 from back-EMF when switching inductive loads, a flyback diode (also known as a freewheeling diode) should be connected in parallel with the inductive load to absorb the back-EMF voltage.
