Why transistor is called transfer of resistor?
Transistor=Transfer+Resistor. When Transistor operates in active region its input resistance is high and output resistance is low. So,We can consider transistor as a device which transfers its resistance from high to low. And by this property transistor amplifies input signal.
How the size of transistor reduced to place in a single pocessor?
transistor size depends on its channel length, that is the length of the region in which a transistor act as an electron tube. the shorter the region, the lowest the resistance, the fastest the transistor, etc... so, it is always good to scale transistor size. problem is that you have to apply a 'good' electrical field in the channel, in order to drive a good 'ON' or 'OFF' state for your transistor. that's why it's not easy to scale their size.
How does a transistor amplify in a common emitter configuration?
The base is excited by a very low current. That turns the transistor on so that a higher amount of current flow comes out.
Why transistor is so necessary?
Without the transistor you would need vacuum tubes to accomplish the same thing. None of our inexpensive portable electronics would be possible using vacuum tubes.
What is the best way to describe the function of a typical transistor in an electronic circuit?
A transistor in a circuit can do many things. It can be used to amplify voltage signals, or current signals, create current and voltage sources, make buffers, and so on. Transistors also find a major use in logic circuits (ie, where signals can either be a '0' or a '1'), where they essentially act as a switch, and can be used to create inverters, AND gates, OR gates, and all sorts of useful components. By itself, a transistor is a three-terminal device that can control the current going through two of its terminals through the voltage applied at the third terminal. But there are many applications for a transistor in its many different configurations, which is why it is so important in modern electronic technology.
Why transistor is called so?
transistor. This word is a blended form of transfer of resistor. The legs of transistor (collector, emitter,base) transfer the resistance. So it is called as transistor
Why transistor so named?
Transistor stands for "Transfer Resistor". (Resistor of transference)
What did John Adams do that is so important?
John Adams is so important because he signed the Declaration of Independence.
Why a transistor is used as a amplifier and switch?
transistor has 2 output 1 and 0 so can be used as a switch
Why transistor is called transfer of resistor?
Transistor=Transfer+Resistor. When Transistor operates in active region its input resistance is high and output resistance is low. So,We can consider transistor as a device which transfers its resistance from high to low. And by this property transistor amplifies input signal.
What is emitter biasing?
Emitter biasing is when you add a resistor between the emitter of a transistor and the 0v rail so that any voltage developed across the emitter will subtract from the voltage on the base and effectively turn the transistor OFF. We are talking about an NPN transistor and the transistor is an "ordinary transistor" or BJT (bi-polar Junction Transistor). For more information on transistor biasing see: Talking Electronics website.
What is a driver transistor?
dirver transistor is added in a circuit so as to provide required voltage at an operating current which can not be provided by the microcontroller
What is meant by saying at what current is transistor biased?
The saying "at what current is transistor biased" means to ask the current through the transistor when there is no signal present. Typically, a transistor is biased at the center of its linear region, so as to minimize distortion. This, of course, depends on whether or not the transistor is AC or DC coupled, and where the clipping points might be.
Is a diode like a transistor?
No. A diode is not like a transistor, and a transistor is not like (two) diode(s). Taken in isolation, the emitter-base and collector-base junctions of a transistor appear to be diodes, but they are coupled together so that the base-emitter current affects the collector-emitter current.
Why is john whycliffe so important?
John Wycliffe is important because he is responsible for one of the first translations of the Bible into English and its wide distribution.
Why was John Tubman so important to Harriet Tubman?
he was her husband
Why is John Parker so important?
I think we all know that answer....
