2、 of them can be made with components from your junk box and hopefully you can put them together in less than an hour.The idea of this book is to get you into the fun of putting things together and theres nothing more rewarding than seeing something work.Its amazing what you can do with a few transis
3、tors and some additional components.And this is the place to start.Most of the circuits are stand-alone and produce a result with as little as 5 parts.We have even provided a simple way to produce your own speaker transformer by winding turns on a piece of ferrite rod.Many components can be obtained
4、 from transistor radios,toys and other pieces of discarded equipment you will find all over the place.To save space we have not provided lengthy explanations of how the circuits work.This has already been covered in TALKING ELECTRONICS Basic Electronics Course,and can be obtained ona CD for$10.00(po
5、sted to anywhere in the world)See Talking Electronics website for more details:http:/Transistor data is at the bottom of this page and a transistor tester circuit is also provided.There are lots of categories and I am sure many of the circuits will be new to you,because some of them have been design
6、ed recently by me.Basically there are two types of transistor:PNP and NPN.We have labelled the NPN transistor as BC547.This means you can use ANY NPN transistor,such as 2N2222,BC108,2N3704,BC337 and hundreds of others.Some circuits use TUN for Transistor Universal NPN and this is the same as our rea
7、soning-the transistor-type is just to let you know it is not critical.BC557 can be replaced by:2N3906,BC327 and many others.Dont worry too much about the transistor-type.Just make sure it is NPN,it this is the type needed.If it is an unknown transistor-type,you need to identify the leads then put it
8、 in the circuit.You have a choice of building a circuit in the air,or using an experimenter board(solderless breadboard)or a matrix board or even a homemade printed circuit board.The choice is up to you but the idea is to keep the cost to a minimum-so dont buy anything expensive.If you take parts fr
9、om old equipment it will be best to solder them together in the air(as they will not be suitable for placing on a solderless breadboard as the leads will be bent and very short).This way they can be re-used again and again.No matter what you do,I know you will be keen to hear some of the noisy circu

11、 microscopic levels of static electricity!You can look through the Index but the names of the projects dont give you a full description of what they do.You need to look at the circuits.And I am sure you will.KIT OF PARTSTalking Electronics supplies a kit of parts that can be used to build the majori

17、 or more transistors to act as buffers,amplifiers or to connect one block to another.It is absolutely essential to understand this area of electronics if you want to carry out design-work or build a simple circuit to carry out a task.We also have an eBook:THE TRANSISTOR AMPLIFIER with over 100 diffe

20、stors and the different pinouts.You need to refer to data sheets or test the transistor to find the correct pinout.Diagram C shows the equivalent of a transistor as a water valve.As more current(water)entersthe base,more water flows from the collector to the emitter.Diagram D shows the transistor co
21、nnected to the power rails.The collector connects to a resistor called a LOAD and the emitter connects to the 0v rail or earth or ground.Diagram E shows the transistor in SELF BIAS mode.This is called a COMMON EMITTER stage and the resistance of the BASE BIAS RESISTOR is selected so the voltage on t
22、he collector is half-rail voltage.In this case it is 2.5v.To keep the theory simple,heres how you do it.Use 22k as the load resistance.Select the base bias resistor until the measured voltage on the collector 2.5v.The base bias will be about 2M2.This is how the transistor reacts to the base bias res
23、istor:The base bias resistor feeds a small current into the base and this makes the transistor turn on and create a current-flow though the collector-emitter leads.This causes the same current to flow through the load resistor and a voltage-drop is created across this resistor.This lowers the voltag
24、e on the collector.The lower voltage causes a lower current to flow into the base and the transistor stops turning on a slight amount.The transistor very quickly settles down to allowing a certain current to flow through the collector-emitter and produce a voltage at the collector that is just suffi
25、cient to allow the right amount of current to enter the base.Diagram F shows the transistor being turned on via a finger.Press hard on the two wires and the LED will illuminate brighter.As you press harder,the resistance of your finger decreases.This allows more current to flow into the base and the
26、 transistor turns on harder.Diagram G shows a second transistor to amplify the effect of your finger and the LED illuminates about 100 times brighter.Diagram H shows the effect of putting a capacitor on the base lead.The capacitor must be uncharged and when you apply pressure,the LED will flash brig
27、htly then go off.This is because the capacitor gets charged when you touch the wires.As soon as it is charged NO MORE CURRENT flows though it.The first transistor stops receiving current and the circuit does not keepthe LED illuminated.To get the circuit to work again,the capacitor must be discharge
28、d.This is a simple concept of how a capacitor works.A large-value capacitor will keep the LED illuminated for a longer period of time.Diagram I shows the effect of putting a capacitor on the output.It must be uncharged for this effect to work.We know from Diagram G that the circuit will stay on when
29、 the wires are touched but when a capacitor is placed in the output,it gets charged when the circuit turns ON and only allows the LED to flash.1.This is a simple explanation of how a transistor works.It amplifies the current going into the base about 100 times and the higher current flowing through
30、the collector-emitter leads will illuminate a LED.2.A capacitor allows current to flow through it until it gets charged.It must be discharged to see the effect again.Read the full article HEREINCREASING THE VOLTAGEYou can change the voltage of many circuits from 6v to12v or 3v to 6v without altering
31、 any of the values.I can see instantly if this is possible due to the value of the components and heres how I do it:Look at the value of the resistors driving the load(s).Work out the current entering each load and see if it is less than the maximum allowable.Then,take a current reading on the lower
32、 voltage.Increase the voltage to the higher value and take another reading.In most cases the current will increase to double the value(or a little higher than twice the original value).If it is over 250%higher,you need to feel each of the components and see if any are getting excessively hot.If any
33、LEDs are taking excessive current,double the value of the current-limiting resistor.If any transistor is getting hot,increase the value of theload resistor.In most cases,when the voltage is doubled,the currentwill will crease to double the original.This means the circuit will consume 4 times the ori
34、ginal energy.This is just a broad suggestion to answer the hundredsof emails I get on this topic.CONTENTS circuits in red are in 101-200 CircuitsNote:All circuits use 1/4 watt resistors unless specified on the diagram.Adjustable High Current Power SupplyAerial AmplifierAlarm Using 4 buttonsAmazing L
