Title: Another hare brained scheme
Post by: saturated on July 02, 2025, 05:35:19 AM
It occurred to me that when checking transistors in circuit power on I can:

Locate the collector and emitter resistors

Measure voltage drops across each

Look at color codes to determine value of resistors

Divide voltage  ➗ by resistance to obtain a value for current

Compare Ic to Ie

Pause to reflect on discoveries

Attempt to draw a conclusion(s)
