Complementary design connectivity of tip142 and tip147

The heart of the Darlington tube lies in the high current increase achieved by cascade amplification.
TIP142 (NPN type) is often used in conjunction with TIP147 (PNP type) for the following reasons:
1. Better control of high current.
2. When working together, amplify the current to both positive and negative directions to enhance the output power.
3. Cooperate with each other to help share the current and heat, prolonging the service life.
