Hi all,
Since I got myself a Legacy Lectron set, time to covert this nice circuit to Ge transistors.
I was browsing through the Braun student manual and found this exercise n° 11.53.
But since it uses many duplicated blocks, not included in a standard Legacy set, I made small modifications to the circuit.
And this circuit rocks ! After each press of the switch, the light bulb switches state from on to off etc.
Now some questions for the true Lectroneers !
- Each time we connect the battery. Will the lamp be on or off ?
- What is the function of the 2 diodes ?
- Will the circuit still work if we use 0,1 µF capacitors instead of the 10 µF ?
- If we replaced R1 with a light bulb in series with a 47 Ohm resistor. Will the circuit still work ?
The answers can easily be found after building the circuit.
Good luck !
