SAP08PY Transistor

Darlington transistors with built-in temperature compensation diodes for audio amplifier applications - Sanken electric

Features

• Built-in temperature compensation diodes and one emitter resistor
• Real time temperature compensation. The temperature compensation diodes are mounted on one chip and placed in the center of the chip to detect temperature rises directly.
• Elimination of the temperature dependency of the idling current. The temperature coefficient of the diodes is optimized to have the idling current stabilized; thus one of the fatal failure modes in conventional Darlington transistors, Thermal Runaway, is avoidable.
• Symmetrical design for the PNP and the NPN pinouts. The new design minimizes the length of the pattern layout, and output distortions are controlled.
• Darlington transistors, temperature compensation diodes and one emitter resistor are incorporated in one package, so labor for parts insertion as well as the parts count is reduced.
