On Thu, Jun 05, 2003 at 11:20:27AM -0800, Robert Smith enlightened us
thusly I don't think so. On the onw I have The collector/emitter reads
like an iron bar, the base/emitter reads ~65 ohms and the base/collector
reads a diode drop one way, and o/c the other. Very Bipolar-ish. Also
the labelling is C,B,&E, not D,G,&S. Have you ever seen a darlington
IGBT? These _are_ darlingtons.
The other possibility is my old friends, the Static Induction Transistor
but I feel not.
This is an old Drive on a milling machine at least fifteen years old.
There were transistor modules then. There is also a tradition of using
difficult to replace items by the Japanese.
