Im not posting a book here about it but heres a bit on transistorsA transistor is an efficient energy saving version of a relay. It acts as an automatic switch when positive voltage is applied to the base, or a signal, which is voltage. Lets say its a BC547b or 2n2222 equivalent. If the flat side of the transistor...See More »
