What are the two transistor switches inside a CPU?

The two types of transistor switches inside a CPU are NMOS (n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor) and PMOS (p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor) transistors. NMOS transistors conduct when a positive voltage is applied to the gate, allowing current to flow from drain to source, while PMOS transistors conduct when a negative voltage is applied, allowing current to flow from source to drain. Together, these transistors form complementary pairs, enabling efficient logic operations and the construction of complex circuits such as gates and flip-flops within the CPU. This complementary technology is commonly referred to as CMOS (complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor).

What are the two main types of transistors?

The two main types of transistors are bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and field-effect transistors (FETs). BJTs operate by controlling the flow of current via two types - NPN and PNP. FETs control current flow using an electrical field, with types including MOSFETs and JFETs.
