Basically, in transistor, the signal is transferred from low resistance circuit to the high resistance circuit. So it is called transfer+resistor=Transistor.
Transistors are widely used in different types of switching, amplifiers, oscillators and integrated circuits.
Based on the applications, the types of the transistors are as given below:
General purpose transistors, Low frequency transistors, High frequency transistors, Power transistors, Switching transistors, Field Effect Transistors, MOSFET, Uni-junction Transistors, Bi junction transistors, Photo transistor, High power transistors, Complementary pair, Darlington amplifier, Video and R.F. amplifier, Ultrahigh frequency and microwave, Insulated gate bipolar transistors, Static induction transistors.
More their to know about transistors are as given below:
History of invention, Time-line throughout, Basic construction, Bias arrangement, working, Various currents in transistors, Basic transistor amplifier, Configurations, Characteristics, Current gain and relation among them, D.C. load line, Operating point, Biasing of transistor, stability factor, specifications and ratings, testing, colour coding, identification of transistor using multimeter, h-parameter of transistor, particular applications etc...
The primary reason that NPN transistors are used more often than PNP transistors is that they usually operate faster (at higher frequencies) because the mobility of the current carriers in NPN transistors (electrons) is much higher than that of the current carriers in PNP transistors (holes).
You need to know the specifications for the transistors and search for them on the internet.
These types of transistors are power transistors and generate heat. The heat sink is used to dissipate the heat. If the transistor gets too hot it will fail.
If you connect two transistors parallel it will heat up and be damaged.
Composition of ram: There are many transistors layed for addressing (accessing specific modules) then there are a series of transistors coupled to a capasitor. That allows for one bit of data to be stored.
If you collected all the transistors. You will see him getting abducted by Aliens.
Z80 contained 8.500 transistors. See the site I linked below for more information.
An 18-core Xeon Haswell-E5 has 5,560,000,000 transistors.
Power transistors are transistors that are used in high-power amplifiers and power supplies.
That depends:simple passive circuits have no transistorsvacuum tube circuits have no transistorssolid state circuits can have anywhere from no transistors (just diodes and/or magnetic amplifying transformers) to as many transistors as needed to perform the function
Transistors are made out of semiconductors, yes.
Silicon and germanium are the elements used in transistors
