Hey I have a BJT NPN transistor, and i would like to know how do i calculate the maximum current that transistor "lets through" (collector to emitter) given the current to the base of transistor. I have a 1K resistor wired to the base of transistor, 5V Vcc. I don't quite understand the electrical c…
