Key Features
- NPN transistor on an oversize Alpha board, emitter connected to zero volts
- Component panels plug into sockets on the transistor board
- Extra sockets for meters to monitor base and collector current
- Alpha links attach external components and sensors to base and collector
- Student and teacher notes, plus a manual on CD
- Requires a regulated d.c. power supply
About This Product
Example circuits include a potential divider, a thermistor in a potential divider, the transistor as a switch, a light controlled switch, a capacitor for time delay and a time delay switch. Used with other Alpha boards, the transistor board can also form a simple oscillator that produces audible tones through a small loudspeaker. All items are stored in a tray with lid.
