Note 1. NTE273 is a discontinued device and no longer available.
Note 2. Due to the monolithic construction of this device, breakdown voltages of both transistor elements
are identical. V(BR)CES is tested in lieu of V(BR)CEO in order to avoid errors caused
by noise pickup. The voltage measured during the V(BR)CES test is the V(BR)CEO of the output
transistor.
Note 3. Pulse test: Pulse Width ≤ 300μs, Duty Cycle ≤ 2.0%.
Uniwatt darlington transistors can be used in any
number of low power applications, such as relay
drivers, motor control and as general purpose
amplifiers. As an audio amplifier these devices,
when used as a complementary pair, can drive
3.5 watts into a 3.2ohm speaker using a 14 volt
supply with less than one per cent distortion. Because
of the high gain the base drive requirement
is as low as 1mA in this application. They are also
useful as power drivers for high current application
such as voltage regulators.
