This video explains the must-have NPN and PNP BJTs. For MOSFETs there are a couple of N-Channels and P-Channels to consider. Basic ICs include some digital logic stuff from the 7400-family as well as the venerable 555-timer to have on-hand. We did not forget Op-Amps either. Spoiler: We do not recommend the ua741!<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfGEFXM3YP4"><img src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/MfGEFXM3YP4/hqdefault.jpg" alt="What Active Components Do You Need? | Workbench Wednesday #29"/></a></p><p><iframe src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/MfGEFXM3YP4" title="What Active Components Do You Need? | Workbench Wednesday #29" width="560" height="315" loading="lazy" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfGEFXM3YP4">Watch this video on YouTube</a></iframe></p></description></item></channel></rss>
