eeeeeeeeeeessecece creeeee SWITCHMODE SERIES NPN SILICON POWER DARLINGTON TRANSISTORS WITH BASE-EMITTER SPEEDUP DIODE The MJ10015 and MJ10016 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 oper -ated switch-mode applications such as: FEATURES: 

*Continuous Collector Current - |, = 50A 

*Switching Regulators 

*Inverters 

*Solenoid and Relay Drivers *Motor Controls
