The bulk resistance between the two bases, which will be different for different types of UJT. Consult the datasheet for the value.
The characteristics of a UJT are: stable triggering voltage, negative resistance, high pulse current capability and low value of triggering current.
The advantages of a UJT include low cost, a negative resistance characteristic, and a low value of triggering current. The main disadvantage is the inability to provide decent amplification.
voltageCurrent between the two bases of the UJT sets up a voltage gradient in the semiconductor. When the voltage on the emitter of the UJT rises high enough to forward bias the emitter-base junction at the voltage of the interbase gradient where the emitter is located, the UJT "turns on".
we can draw an equivalent circuit for UJT USING a DIODE and two resistors.draw a diode in emitter lead ..draw the two resistors in series.As rb1 in base 1 lead ..and rb2 in base 2 lead ..draw rb1 as variable resistor.And put a voltage to the ujt in order to get a positive voltage in base two lead.

No. A unijunction transistor (UJT) is entirely different in design and application than a bipolar junction transistor (BJT). The UJT works on the principle of voltage modulation of the effective substrate resistance, while the BJT works on the principle of current amplification from one junction to the other, usually base-emitter to collector-emitter.

A UJT is a special type of diode with a long resistive base having 2 contacts and acting as a voltage divider. The diode junction is created at a point on this base selected to set the trigger voltage of the UJT at which it will conduct. Therefore the equivalent circuit has a diode because the actual circuit has a diode.
In a Unijunction Transistor (UJT), the arrow mark in the emitter symbol indicates the direction of conventional current flow when the device is forward-biased. The emitter (E) is the terminal where current flows out, and its arrow points toward the base region, which is the junction where the UJT operates. This configuration helps identify the emitter as the terminal that controls the device's operation, distinguishing it from the base and preventing confusion in circuit diagrams.

UJT is the voltage controlled device.in which only one mejority carriers are responsible for current flowing. UJT is one junction transistor and it is three terminal emitter and two base. BJT is the current controlled device. in which both mejority and minority carrier are responsiblefor current flowing. this type of transistor consists of two junction and three terminal these are : emitter , base , collector.
