When you want a simple SWITCHING device for MEDIUM POWER LOADS. TIP31C is one of the basic TRANSISTORS out there which are easily available and cheap. With electrical characteristics suiting many applications it is fairly popular. So the component is best suited when choosing a random switching device.

When you want AMPLIFY a signal. The amplifying factor of TIP31C is fairly good and the important thing is gain is almost linear. So these characteristics make TIP31C one of best contender for amplifying applications.

TIP31C can be controlled by MICROCONTROLLER pulses because of its gain and high speed response. So it can be used in high speed switching applications.
