Thus a signal can be switched on by passing it through a diode in forward bias, and then turned off by putting the diode into reverse bias. A simplified diode switch in the reverse biased Off ...

Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...
