SWITCHMODE Series

NPN Silicon Power Darlington

Transistors with Base-Emitter

Speedup Diode

The MJ10020 and MJ10021 Darlington transistors are designed for high–voltage,

high–speed, power switching in inductive circuits where fall time is critical. They are

particularly suited for line operated switchmode applications such as:

• AC and DC Motor Controls

• Switching Regulators

• Inverters

• Solenoid and Relay Drivers

• Fast Turn–Off Times

150 ns Inductive Fall Time at 25
