What is semiconductor triode?

It can be either a Bipolar Junction Transistor (NPN or PNP) or a Field Effect Transistor (N channel JFET, P channel JFET, N channel MOSFET, or P channel MOSFET).


What types of transistors are the following - BJT PCT UJT SBT FET GJT AJT DFT?

The BJT is the bipolar junction transistor, the PCT is the point contact transistor, the UJT is the uni-junction transistor, the SBT is the surface barrier transistor, the FET is the field effect transistor, the GJT is the grown-junction transistor, the AJT is the alloy-junction transistor, and the DFT is the drift field-junction transistor.


What is FET?

FET is abbreviation of Field Effect Transistor. This is a transistor in which current is controlled by voltage only and no current is drawn. It is a high input impedence device and is used in computers, telecommunication and control circuits. This transistor is better in certain parameters as compared to BJT, that is Bipolar Junction Transistor.

What applications would prefer the bipolar junction transistors over the field effect transistor?

bjt is bipolar device whr fet is unipolar....fet is input resistance thts y fet gain is less compared to bjt..... The applications that will prefer bipolar junction transistors to field effect transistors are applications that require fast switching.


Are the Bipolar Junction Transistor and the Transistor the same thing?

Sort of. The Bipolar Junction Transistor, or BJT, is a type of transistor. But the term transistor applies to a much wider family of components than just the Standard BJT. A rough list of the other common types of transistors includes:Field effect transistors, or FETs, including both Junction types and Metal-oxide Semiconductor types: JFETs and MOSFETs. and also UJTs or unijunction transistors.In a basic electronics course, though, if you say just 'transistors' it is assumed you mean BJTs.
