that would be seriously off topic, but... Transistor

Power MOSFETs become less conductive with increasing temperature and can therefore be applied in shunt, to increase current capacity, unlike the bipolar transistor, which has a negative temperature coefficient of resistance, and is therefore prone to thermal runaway. The downside of this is that, while the power FET can protect itself from overheating by diminishing the current through it, high temperatures need to be avoided by using a larger heat sink than for an equivalent bipolar device.





Owwww, my head, make it stop......

That right there is why I went Mech E

Think that's bad after umpteen years and can't keep straight simple diodes--current flow is with the arrow but electron flow is against the arrow. And that's just the start of the confusion.
It's heck troubleshooting and I stop & think, it's all over. Drat learning all those different schools of thought!
Is ground negative or positive in this circuit!!!
It's magic or osmosis.
