DESCRIPTION
The TIP140, TIP141 and TIP142 are silicon
Epitaxial-Base NPN power transistors in
monolithic Darlington configuration, mounted in
TO-218 plastic package. They are intented for
use in power linear and switching applications.
The complementary PNP types are TIP145,
TIP146 and TIP147 respectively.
