It would however be improper to round off the series without also admitting that bipolar transistors are only part of the story. There is another family of transistors which have analogous circuit ...

Bipolar RF transistors are designed to handle high power radio frequency (RF) signals in amplifiers, transmitters, monitors, and other devices. Like all transistors, they are used to switch and ...

It uses the same basic graphics and style as his earlier video on bipolar transistors (second video, below) which is a great one to watch, too. In all fairness to your electronics teacher ...

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the ...

Commercial transistors started to take off after in July 1951, Bell Labs announced the successful invention and development of the junction transistor. By the end of the 1950s, bipolar junction ...

In order to achieve useful amplification from a transistor, the transistor is generally biased in the forward-active region (FAR). The FAR is the region of operation of the transistor where ...

A transistor is made of semiconductor, mostly of silicon in present days. Two types of constructions are possible, either a p-region sandwiched between two n-regions or vice versa, as sketched in ...

A major breakthrough came in 1947, when John Baden, William Shockley and Watter Brattain of Bell labs unveiled the first functioning point contact Germanium transistor. In 1950, Shockley developed the ...

Double PN junctions are used to build bipolar transistors. These p-type/n-type bipolar "sandwiches" are called "PNP" and "NPN" transistors. See bipolar transistor and n-type silicon. THIS ...

field effect transistor and bipolar junction transistor). Specific skills to review before the course: Unit conversions for energy (i.e. eV to J) Planck's constant, Trigonometric & exponential ...
