    Understanding Vce & Vbe (newbie)

    So... If I use a MOSFET and I want it to switch fast a need to make sure that the gate has a high current and a voltage from 2v to 4v...

    Understanding Vce & Vbe (newbie)

    Ok. So if I would use a power MOSFET like IRF640 (most common over here, rated at 200V) I can apply 1 or 10V to the gate and make it conduct... that simple... And if I want to use and inductive load..., is the same? What's the difference if I use a SCR or a TRIAC...? sorry for so many basic...

    Understanding Vce & Vbe (newbie)

    Hello I'm studying how to use a transistor as a switch with the less heat as possible, but I hardly understand how to use the datasheet. I'm trying to use the 2n3055 transistor as a switch. acoording to the data sheet: VCE(sat) Collector−Emitter Saturation Voltage (IC = 4.0 Adc, IB = 400 mAdc)

    Electronic Ignition (Transistor + points)

    Hi, Steven If I do a search, what should I be looking for... And do you know why is the reason for the VALUE of the base-emitter resistor in a PNP..., when I have to increase it or decrease it....? Thanks in Advance.

    I'm also thinking on using a NPN for automotive use, but I'm not pretty sure about if this circuit might work... I'm trying to keep it as simple and functional as possible... What do you think?

    Electronic Ignition (Transistor + points)

    Hi, to all and wellcome to my project... I'M THINKING THAT THE STARTER LOWER THE VOLTAGE AND MAYBE THE TRANSISTOR DOESN'T TURN ON... I'm a hobist and I found an old article of how to make a transistor assisted electronic ignition with few components...
