Hi all,
Placing a finger on the base pin of this darlington configuration glows the LED (in fact reaches very close to saturation)!
I learned that you need a threshold voltage of about 0.7volts across the base-emitter junction in order to bring transistor into conduction.
So does this imply that my finger having a potential of 0.7volts??
Thanks
