This circuit relies upon the extra high input impedance of a FET, and also demonstrates the gate terminals sensitivity to changes in voltage. The gate terminal here is left open circuit, connected only to the "probe" this being just a few inches of bare....

One of the most interesting projects to work with is that of a synthesizer that can accurately gnerate desired frequencies. This synthesizer uses just three CMOS chips and one PNP transistor. It is a fact that the transistor may be the hardest component to....
