This circuit was found in a 90s EDN. Its purpose is to increase the efficiency of operational amplifiers. Power MOSFETs and inverted zeners support equivalents.
This circuit triggers the LED when the monitored battery voltage drops below 9 V for 12 V...
We found this circuit in a Radio Electronics from January 1967. The SCR is already the C106, which...
This power source with silicon diodes at a time when valves were still used was found in Radio...
