For example, you can insert a resistor, a capacitor, an inductor, a diode, or a transistor and get a readout of which pin is which. It seems like magic, but [Andreas Spiess] did the research on ...

This transistor switching circuit uses an npn transistor, a voltage divider (consisting of a \(5 kΩ \) resistor and thermistor) and a \(5 V\) power supply. Use the information in the table to ...
