Where does the name "Darlington" come from?

Google search for "darlington transistor name" came up with this: [1] - the answer is Bell Labs researcher Sidney Darlington (1906-1997). I'll put a note on the subject page. -- Tim Starling 22:21 Oct 29, 2002 (UTC)

[edit] References.

I think a good part of this article is taken from The art of electronics, Horrowiz Hill, 2.16 pag 95. Shall we cite it? Is not verbatim, but is definitely from there. --Pieffe 18:13, 1 April 2006 (UTC)

I didn't write the article, but I did add some information to it using AofE as a reference. However, it was not lifted verbatim, just used as you would use any reference work in an assignment, etc.. So, feel free to add a citation. Graham 08:36, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] wrong

The current gain should be b1*b2 + b1 + b2 I think.
