[Eric Wasatonic] had a box of SWB2433 transistors that he had very little information about. In order to discover their properties, he fired up his curve tracer to compare these transistors with more ...

It normally takes two transistors to build a blinker circuit (in order to make positive feedback possible). However, you can also use a photo-resistor (LDR) that is illuminated by an LED. The feedback ...

This is simple circuit that illustrates the function of the programmable unijunction transistor. It may be quickly wired on a proto-board. The programmable unijunction transistor remains dormant until ...

With cycling safety in mind, I bought a pair of low power red LED things that replace the bungs in the end of drop handlebars. They are a neat way to get a bit of extra visibility – and to give a ...
