So, if you are looking for a PNP transistor for your amplifier circuit then TIP32 might be your choice or to switch higher current loads more than 2A, try logic level MOSFETS like IRF540N (N-channel) which also operates at 5V.Īlthough TIP has high collector current and current gain, it is fairly simple to control the device since it has an Emitter-Base voltage (VBE) of only 5V and base current of only 120mA. Since it has high collector current of about 2A it can be used for Power switching or large signal amplification.The transistor is mainly known for its high amplification capacity since 2A is not much of a higher capacity. Note: Complete Technical Details can be found at the TIP32C transistor datasheet provided at the end of this page.
Collector-Emitter voltage (VCE) is 100 V.Continuous Collector current (IC) is 3A.Controls the biasing of transistor, Used to turn ON or OFF the transistorĬurrent flows in through collector, normally connected to loadĬurrent Drains out through emitter, normally connected to ground
