Accurate Transistor Tester Circuits Explored
In this article we talk about a few simple yet accurate transistor tester circuits which can used to identify whether a transistor is good or bad. Note: Please test *only* BJTs and MOSFETs (enhancement or depletion) with these circuits. Simple Good/Bad Transistor Checker using a Single LED Do you have a lot of strange old transistors […]
3 Basic Capacitor Functioning and Working Explored
In this article I have explained 3 popular functions of capacitors and how to use capacitors in electronic circuit by analyzing their appropriate working modes depending on the application need of a given circuit stage Introduction Seen those colorful, cylindrical and chocolate shaped parts on a PCB? These may be actually the capacitors of different […]
Making a Time Machine – Concept Explored
Wondering how to travel in time? Learn it with great Sir Stephen Hawking, according to whom time warp may be an option but seems pretty impractical, the reason being the feed back loop which will just oppose the feasibility of making a time machine and the concept using this theory. Are you intrigued by the […]
