I apologise, I wasn't intending to open up such a can of worms! As I 
stated in my original post, I have a variable voltage of 0 to 5V (no 
microcontroller involved) that I want to translate in to a variable 
current using a transistor. And so, I am lead back to my original 
question - what kind of transistor and what value would work best to 
provide a variable current which duplicates the potentiometer's variable 
current? and do I need any extra components besides just a transistor? 
thanks!
