Central Semiconductor Corp. Darlington Transistors 2N6038

The 2N6038 is an NPN silicon Darlington power transistor in a TO-126 package, designed for general purpose amplifier and switching applications. It has a collector-emitter voltage rating of 60 V, a continuous collector current of 4.0 A, and a power dissipation of 40 W. The device exhibits a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 3.0 V at 4.0 A collector current and 40 mA base current, with a base-emitter saturation voltage of 4.0 V under the same conditions. Current gain (hFE) ranges from 100 to 15,000 at 500 mA to 2.0 A collector current. Thermal resistance from junction to case is 3.12 °C/W, and the operating junction temperature ranges from -65 °C to +150 °C.
