Abstract :
Darlington is credited with the discovery and initial demonstration in the early 1950´s of what ever since has been known as the Darlington transistor pair, or simply the Darlington transistor or Darlington pair. This article provides examples of Darlington´s wide-ranging technical interests and his creativity addressed to the solution of real engineering problems
