Darlington Pair: CC – CC

  • A Darlington pair is a two-transistor circuit with the emitter of one transistor is connected to the base of another transistor, while both collector terminals are connected to the common terminal.
  • It has high current gain β; (equal to the product of current gain of individual transistors)
  • It can be regarded as a single transistor with a high value of β and hence very high input resistance
  • It also has high input impedance and low output impedance
  • The current gain of a Darlington pair in common emitter configuration is approximately β2
  • It also has high input impedance and low output impedance

The symbolic diagram of the Darlington pair is shown below
