The PNP transistors conducts when there is no signal at base (0V or grounded), when base current is increased the conduction of PNP transistor decreases.

What is hie for a transistor?

hie is input impedance when signal applied at its base.


What happens when high input signal is given to pnp transistor?

A high signal input to a transistor amplifier gives a high signal output provided it stays linear.


Is there a transistor that turn on when there is no current on base and turn off when there is no current?

Yes, a transistor can be configured to operate in such a manner using a specific circuit design. A common example is a relay driver circuit with a normally closed relay, which can be designed to turn on without base current and turn off when base current is applied. Additionally, certain types of bistable multivibrator circuits can achieve similar functionality by utilizing feedback to maintain their state until an external signal is applied.


When transistor acts as an amplifier then does its output voltage increase or decrease?

That depends on both the input signal and the type of amplifier the transistor is used in.


How do transistors amplify weak signal?

A transistor controls the flow of current between the emitter and collector. The larger current is supplied by the power supply, across the emitter and collector. The flow is then controlled by a small current applied to the base connection. So, a large current flow mimics the small signal current. Limits are reached, when the transistor gets close to being fully switched on or off. This will cause distortion. To avoid this, more amplification is provided by a series of transistor amplifiers, one after the other.

Different between power transistor and transistor that used in small signal?

Power transistor can conduct large amount of currents through it, more than small signal transistor. power transistor has a vertical structure and small signal transistor has horizontal structure.In power transistor quasi saturation region is present which is absent in the small signal transistor. In power transistor there is a inculsion of drift layer which is not there in the small signal transistor. Power dissipation is less in power transistor and it is more in small signal transistor. b.v.polytechnic,vasai pushkar vaity.

How do you convert npn signal to pnp signal?

To convert an NPN signal to a PNP signal, you can use an inverter circuit, typically implemented with a transistor or a logic gate. For a simple transistor-based solution, connect the NPN transistor's collector to the power supply, its emitter to the load, and the base to the NPN signal through a resistor. When the NPN is on (high signal), it will turn off the PNP transistor, resulting in a low output, and vice versa, effectively inverting the signal.
