On the proportioning of chip area for multistage Darlington power transistors
Abstract
A model has been proposed and solved in which all Darlington circuits may be represented to a first order approximation by five constants, one of which may be normalized. Experimental verification has been provided offering excellent agreement with theory. Several orders of magnitude improvement in current handling ability have been shown to exist for multistage Darlington circuits over conventional discrete transistors.
