In order to compensate for the differences
in
the characteristics of the
T71's, the resistors R70 are inserted. Without these current sharing resis
tors risk exists for overloading one of the transistors , as its collector
current might become too high. The R 7 1 ' s take the average of the voltage
across the R70 ' s . This voltage is proportional to the output current and is
used for current limit, firing, output ammeter etc .
