So was looking around at some circuits out there.
I have seen a few examples of people running simple things like an LED with a BJT just to light it up
I have stumbled upon several circuits where the bjt is in active mode not saturation.
These are examples from text books. Im surprised by this.
Is that ok to do? I know there are generally major concerns running a mosfet in linear region
Is this normally accepted in a BJT?
Essentially, my VB < VC but VB greater then VE only by the slightest bit, essentially the .7 drop to turn it on.
Any thoughts? Thanks
