The power transistors specified in Figures 3.28 and 3.29 are plastic TAB
versions of the ever-popular metal cased T03 encapsulated PNP3055 and
2N3055.
The TIP2955 and TIP3055 are, however, easier to mount and
share the same 15 A maximum collector current rating as their metal
cased counterparts.
The regulator operates normally (i.e. the transistor remains idle) for
current of less than approximately 60 mA but, beyond this figure, the
