The class A amplifier consists of a transistor ... buffer. These were both derived, simulated, and prototyped with closely matching results. In addition to audio, these circuit blocks find use ...

The other day, I thought of a way to modify a conventional ‘diamond buffer’ (circuit ... All the transistors are on all the time, so there are no delays getting them out of saturation: a nice quick ...

They switch on with a base voltage of around 0.6V to 0.8V. Circuit diagrams often show transistors in switching circuits. For an ideal NPN transistor, the switch-on voltage at the base is ...

The two-transistor circuit offers the additional benefit of acting as a level translator between two logic levels. This example shows a buffer- translation between a 3.3V system and a 5V card. For ...
