Albeit I find this particular thread very interesting, the above is quite nice to know.Still fighting the BRAIN fog, but it is getting better.
I was about to ask the same question. But I was under the impression that they're there as a means of dropping the voltage reaching the gate. Though I wouldn't know why.Questio:n why do you feel the two diodes on the base are needed.? Is it to prevent slow cumulative damage on the transistor BE?
