Talk:Circuit Idea/How to Make the Simplest Transistor Amplifier Bipolar?

This page should relate to the previous page about a very simple amplifier, but that has not been created yet. So take this page as merely setting down in words some ideas that could follow, the basis for the germ of an idea for the "proper" page about biasing transistors to handle thje ups and downs of signals!

I probably should not have introduced the ideas of PNP and NPN (except I have to make it clear that a positive OR a negative signal could be handled using the "simplest" amplifier - that still has not, itself, been given!). I really should not have mentioned common emitter and common collector. In fact, readers with some experience will know it is very, very easy to make a common emitter amplifier that handles positive and negative signals with one transistor! But then the aim of the article, to introduce biasing, is missed.
