Mostly electron current carriers are more mobile than hole current carriers, resulting in a faster transistor.

Why npn transistor preferred according to fabrication technique?

npn is preferred to pnp since n-doping can be pushed to higher values without damaging silicon lattice. due to this fact, doped regions can be less resistive. difference between npn and pnp is becoming smaller and smaller, tho.

Why you use NPN transistors rather than PNP?

Switching is faster in NPN transistor than PNP. Because movement of electrons is faster than holes.

Is PNP sourcing or sinking?

PNP is sourcing. NPN is sinking. You generally connect NPN to ground and your PLC(or any load)input. With PNP you connect to V+ and to your PLC. Your PLC (load) should have the same ground or V+. Sourcing (PNP) provides a path to +24DC generally. Sinking (NPN) provides a path to 0V DC.


Why PNP and NPN are used in direct coupling?

To save a decoupling capacitor & biasing resistors for the PNP.
