In the past, an aspiring electronics enthusiast would have started with simple transistor circuits such as a light sensitive switch, a simple electric organ, or an AM radio such as the one feature ...

You’re going to build two simple transistor circuits, each using a single transistor. These circuits will allow you to observe the operation of a transistor as an amplifier, just as Walter ...

Where the previous book was all about presenting a single project in stages, this one is more about teaching some basic transistor circuits in stages. When I was given a copy I had a basic idea ...

and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, modes of operation, switching and current amplifying behaviors. Prior knowledge needed: ECEA 5630 Semiconductor ...

A simple way to test whether a component is active or not is to measure the difference be-tween its input and output signals. If there is a decline in power, the component is passive. If the signal is ...
