How can I apply kcl on transistor considering it as a single node since transistor can act as source or sink for electrons due to combination with holes

AI Thread Summary
Applying Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL) to a transistor involves understanding that it acts as a single node where the net current is the sum of charge carriers moving in one direction. Transistors do not function as sources or sinks for electrons; instead, they facilitate the combination of holes (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge) at the junction in a 1:1 ratio. This results in a net current that flows consistently in one direction, either from holes to electrons or vice versa. The discussion emphasizes that despite the complexity of charge movement, KCL principles still apply. Overall, the behavior of charge carriers in a transistor aligns with KCL, reinforcing the concept of current conservation.
Hi all
I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker.
I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test.
I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far.
Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space:
Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things:
This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
