Category: Transistors - Darlington 

A Darlington transistor—also known as a Darlington pair—is an electronic device that combines two bipolar junction transistors so that the current amplified by the first is further amplified by the second, resulting in an exceptionally high overall current gain and allowing a very small input current to control a much larger output current. In this configuration, the emitter of the first transistor feeds the base of the second, and both collectors are typically tied together, making the pair behave like a single transistor with one base, one collector, and one emitter.
