they are reliable and have high pulse ratings.
In most discrete bipolar junction transistors the substrate is the collector. In monolithic integrated circuits the bipolar junction transistors are electrically isolated from the substrate, either by reversed biased junctions or insulator (e.g. sapphire). Some older bipolar junction transistor types (usually made with germanium) the substrate is the base. In bipolar point contact transistors the substrate was the base.
A bipolar transistor uses both majority and minority charge carriers for conduction, while a field effect transistor primarily relies on majority charge carriers. Field effect transistors have a higher input impedance compared to bipolar transistors. Additionally, bipolar transistors are current-operated devices, while field effect transistors are voltage-operated devices.
Bipolar Transistors and Diode's .
in bipolar transistors it is called the basein field effect transistors it is called the channel
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.
They are NPN and PNP. BJT mean bipolar junction transistors. there are two P-N junctions in BJT transisters.
An Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) is a semiconductor device that combines the characteristics of both bipolar transistors and MOSFETs, primarily used for switching and amplification in power electronics. Its main purpose is to control high voltages and high currents efficiently, making it ideal for applications like motor drives, inverters, and power supplies. The IGBT's ability to handle large amounts of power with low switching losses makes it essential in renewable energy systems and industrial equipment.
They are one standardized way of describing the characteristics of bipolar transistors.

Yes people still use bipolar junction transistors today because of its high switching speed.
Actually either can be used.
