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 ...

This is a simple flashing led circuit with 2 leds and 2 NPN transistors. It illustrates the behavior of transistors and capacitors and if you use an oscilloscope it will be very easy to determine what ...

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 ...

A recent design project required a bright LED flash each time a 100-µs pulse occurred. The pulse repeated every 300 ms. Because the pulse was so short, driving the ...
