Hello,
New here, have a question.
I am tryin to create a very simple circuit.
I have a 12V source that goes into 2 diodes into series, then out to the load.
Then I have a 5V source that goes into a single Schottky Diode, then out to the same load.
I need to be able to switch between them with a single jumper. I don't have much space to do this on the circuit board, so the less components, the better.
I've heard this can be done with a PNP and an NPN transistor, but can't figure it out.
Can someone here help me out?
Thanks in Advance!
