Sziklai pair
open-in-new
<p>In <a href="/facts/Electronics/E4JhgISq">electronics</a>, the Sziklai pair, also known as a complementary feedback pair, is a configuration of two <a href="/facts/Bipolar_transistor/9BMcGv5Q">bipolar transistors</a>, similar to a <a href="/facts/Darlington_transistor/2QGqjsgP">Darlington pair</a>. In contrast to the Darlington arrangement, the Sziklai pair has one <a href="/facts/NPN_transistor/9BMcGv5Q">NPN</a> and one <a href="/facts/PNP_transistor/9BMcGv5Q">PNP</a> transistor, and so it is sometimes also called the "complementary Darlington". The configuration is named for <a href="/facts/George_Clifford_Sziklai/0ygKA0uW">George C. Sziklai</a>, thought to be its inventor. </p>
