How Transistors Work [video]

I have always found it really useful to go back to the first few examples of a device when learning about its function (e.g. https://www.extremetech.com/extreme/175004-the-genesis-of-th...).

Love seeing it in large scale as it becomes just another simple device like a resistor or potentiometer.

It's worth noting that that's a point-contact transistor, not a bipolar junction transistor. A rather different sort of cat (whisker)!
