It can be used any where and it is preferred over PNP transistor because mobility of electron is much greater than hole.
Some applications of NPN transistors
Switching
amplification(audio amplifiers)
In manufacturing of several ICs(including 741,and TTL(74 series)).
A transistor with one layer of positively charged semiconductor material between two negatively charged layers.
It controls how much electric flow, travels through it.
What is a 2N2369 transistor.It's an npn switching transistor.
is zero
BT169 is neither an NPN nor a PNP transistor. BT169 is a thyristor, otherwise known as a silicon controlled rectifier.
Generally upstream is closer to the positive (+) voltage source. In the case of an NPN transistor upstream of the transistor is the part of the circuit from (+) to the NPN collector pin. Downstream of the transistor is from the NPN emitter pin to the ground / sink / negative (-) terminal.
To know if a transistor is PNP or an NPN,the following should be verified:For a PNP transistor, the base-collector junction is forward biased while the base-emitter junction is reversed biased.For an NPN transistor, the base-emitter junction is forward biased while the base -collector junction is reversed biased.
