Market RealityThe TIP41C / TIP42C pair is the general-purpose linear and switching workhorse of a generation of amplifiers, regulators and drive stages - the TO-220 answer to the classic 2N3055, with a tenth of the base drive requirements of the Darlington family and a real gain that has to be respected. The repairs that go wrong on this pair go wrong in three ways: fitted as an upgrade for a Darlington position (the base drive disappears), gain group swapped without checking (hFE 15 to 75 is a wide field), and the 2N3055 antique traded in without doing the mechanical and voltage arithmetic of the TO-3-to-TO-220 move.The TIP41C / TIP42C pair is the general-purpose linear and switching workhorse of a generation of amplifiers, regulators and drive stages - the TO-220 answer to the classic 2N3055, with a tenth of the base drive requirements of the Darlington family and a real gain that has to be respected.
