Figure 14.3 Transfer characteristic of the emitter follower in Fig. 14.2. This linear characteristic is obtained by neglecting the change in vBE1
with iL. The maximum positive output is determined by the saturation of Q1. In the negative direction, the limit of the linear region is
determined either by Q1 turning off or by Q2 saturating, depending on the values of I and RL.

(14.23). Thus, for small vI, both transistors conduct and crossover distortion is almost completely eliminated.

Figure 14.19 The popular TO3 package for power transistors. The case is metal with a diameter of about 2.2 cm; the outside dimension of the “seating
plane” is about 4 cm. The seating plane has two holes for screws to bolt it to a heat sink. The collector is electrically connected to the case. Therefore an
electrically insulating but thermally conducting spacer is used between the transistor case and the “heat sink.”
