Overview

The TIP50 is a bipolar made by STMicroelectronics in a TO-220 package with 3 pins. 1 NPN 10MHz 150 1V 1mA 2A 400V 40W 5V NPN TO-220 Bipolar (BJT) ROHS.

PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Pinmap_Generic:Q_NPN_1B_2C_3E, from PCBKit's generic symbols) and its footprint (EasyEDA_Cloud:TO-220-3_L10.0-W4.5-P2.54-L-1, from EasyEDA), ready for a KiCad board. 498 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C283414). 2 open-source boards in 2 repositories on GitHub use it.

Questions

Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the TIP50?

Yes. The symbol is Pinmap_Generic:Q_NPN_1B_2C_3E and the footprint EasyEDA_Cloud:TO-220-3_L10.0-W4.5-P2.54-L-1, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.

What package is the TIP50?

TO-220, with 3 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.

Where is the TIP50 datasheet?

STMicroelectronics publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.

Where can I order the TIP50?

JLCPCB lists it as part C283414, with 498 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.

What can replace the TIP50?

Parts like it in the library: the BU406 by SPTECH, the D45VH10 by onsemi, the ST13005 by STMicroelectronics and the MJE15028 by SPTECH. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.

Which open-source boards use the TIP50?

2 boards in 2 repositories on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
