Experiment 11 - The PNP Sziklai Pair

In the last two experiments you come to know the Sziklai pair that behaves like a NPN transistor. With small modifications, you can also build a Sziklai pair that behaves like a PNP transistor.

PNP Sziklai Pair. (Enlarge) With the circuit shown, you construct a PNP Sziklai pair. Also in this circuit the base-emitter voltage is identical to that of a single transistor.

Circuit diagram of the PNP Sziklai pair.

But for now it is enough about individual circuits. Now you look at their applications...
