Ok ill try. Im not so good with electronics so im gonna make a guess. So if you press the switch the the led lights up because you allow current through the transistor which lights the led. But only for a few moments because there is a capacitor so the led would slowly dim and after that the led wont light anymore because the capacitor is charged.Whatever would happen, you won't know it until you first try to guess it yourself. After you have made an effort on solving your problem, you will receive help from the AAC community.
Well you must know something. Are you doing a course in electronics? If not, why have you posted your question? Interested in electronics as a hobby?nope i don't i really don't know anything
Hi aartt,
Can you see why the circuit as drawn might lead to either a dead transistor a dead diode or both - once you close the switch?
I've taken a few basic courses in electronics and I'm curious to know the answerWell you must know something. Are you doing a course in electronics? If not, why have you posted your question? Interested in electronics as a hobby?
When capacitor is empty, the capacitor act juts like a short circuit.I'm not seeing how the damage is done to either the diode or the transistor.
Can someone explain?
