The 2N6059 is a silicon Epitaxial-Base NPN transistor in a monolithic Darlington configuration mounted in a Jedec TO-3 metal case. It is intended for use in power linear and low-frequency switching applications.
What is Darlington Transistor?
A Darlington transistor is also known as a Darlington pair is an electronics component made via the combination of two PNP or NPN BJTs (Bipolar Junction Transistor) connected in such a way that it allows a very high amount of current gain. Darlington pair is simply used in many applications where switching or amplification is crucial.
