ABSTRACT:
A composite transistor device having over-current protection is disclosed, and particularly a device for protecting Darlington configuration power transistor devices. The over-current protection circuit operates to clamp the base-emitter potential of the exciter transistor thus causing the power output transistor to maintain a power output below a predetermined threshold value. This allows the control of the power output intensity so as to avoid damage to the circuit, and with a minimum of power losses due to active voltage losses.
