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
