Ideas for Design ;-)

Sheeeeesh!

OOOOkay, I'm not seeing the humor. Either reverse biasing an LED will in fact turn it off (page 65) or somebody reinventing 4000 series logic on page

  1. Which one is the knee-slapper?

There are _much_ simpler ways to implement absorbing the Q-bias of the TL431 without using an auxiliary supply... think about it... 10 seconds max allowed ;-)

Discrete 4000 series logic? That IS a true knee-slapper ;-)

Ideas for DESIGN? I think not!
