The case or resurrected 3055’s
2n3055 is a NPN transistor which means there are two N wavers separated by one P waver where the P that acts like a permeable dielectric. Now this is where the conventional vs reality current flow becomes an issue again. In relation to my circuit:
Conventional: The switching current (thus electrons) flows from the Collector to Base (I=cb) and the power current flows from Collector to Emitter (I=ce). There is nothing wrong with this and it makes perfect sense – and probably part of my ‘mistake’ to have this circuit behaving like it does. Two currents (Switching = low and Power = high) are passing into the Base and then moving in the same direction through the P waver until they split to Emitter (N1 waver) and Collector (N2 waver). What comes in is going out, flowing hand in hand until the separation. That could also be why we get HV on the 2222 base – going out, right?
Reality: The switching current (thus electrons) flows from the Base to the Collector (I=bc) and the power current flows from Emitter to Collector (I=ec). Now immediately we can see there is a collision! Emitter is coming from the left, Base is coming from 90 degree off and both wants to turn down the same Collector waver. This collision of electrons cause a bit of confusion and in that confusion some of the electrons gets trapped in the P waver. It is working like a cascade – the more electrons trapped, the more they cause confusion and trap more other electrons. The end result: Transistor seems to fail.
This is also the explanation I have why I sometimes find the transistor acting like a coil – ringing. Why there are sometimes frequency residue in the transistor when power is removed, as I have seen on the scope.
For video #030 - this will then help to explain why we have such high voltage on the base - and also why the 2222 acts like an antenna to suck energy in, and why it oscillates and why many things.
Now keep this in mind when you view my next videos #029 and #030:
Also keep in mind: I am just me, not an expert - thus I might still be wrong;
BUT until me or someone else can come up with better explanation........
