Advantages of FETThe main advantage of the FET is its high input resistance, on the order of 100M ohms or more. Thus, it is a voltage-controlled device, and shows a high degree of isolation between input and output. It is a unipolar device, depending only upon majority current flow. It is less noisy and is thus found in FM tuners for quiet reception. It is relatively immune to radiation. It exhibits no offset voltage at zero drain current and hence makes an excellent signal chopper. It typically has better thermal stability than a BJT.[2]

What are transistors used for?

Transistors have two basic functions: # an electrically controlled electric switch # an electrically controlled "proportional valve" which can alter currents and voltages, or can amplify electric signals. Transistors can also be configured as Oscillators which provide an AC signal with constant frequency. Either an amplifier circuit or a switching circuit can be wired as an oscillator. Transistors can be used to form logic gates: And, Or, and Invert. Computers are made from logic gates, so computers can be made entirely from transistors. Transistors are in use in virtually all electronic devices. PC processors are composed of millions of tiny transistors. A transistor radio may have had only 6-10 transistors to enable operation. A late model car may have 10 to 15 computers comprised of thousands of transistors to perform all manner of operations in the vehicle.

How many transistors can fit in a microchip the size of a penny?

That depends:simple passive circuits have no transistorsvacuum tube circuits have no transistorssolid state circuits can have anywhere from no transistors (just diodes and/or magnetic amplifying transformers) to as many transistors as needed to perform the function

What are 3 advantages of transisters?

I will assume you mean "transistors". Compared to their predecessors (vacuum tubes), transistors:* Are faster * Use less current * Use less space Note that all of these advantages get even more pronounced in the case of integrated circuits (which also contain transistors).

What are the advantages of TTL over DTL?

because the amplifying function are performed by transistors (contrast with RTL and DTL).


What are the advantages of collector to base biased?

it converts it to a diode. sometimes this is done for matching the characteristics of diodes and transistors in the circuit. standard diodes might not have similar enough curves to the transistors for the circuit to operate correctly.

When did transistors replace the vacuum tube?

A Transistor is an electronic device which amplifies electrical signals, or acts as a switch. Most of the research on Transistors was performed by Shockley in 1947. That was when, the advantages of the solid state device similar in function to a Triode Vacuum tube were understood and implemented. The basic advantage was compactness..

Why are npn transistors used more often than pnp transistors?

The primary reason that NPN transistors are used more often than PNP transistors is that they usually operate faster (at higher frequencies) because the mobility of the current carriers in NPN transistors (electrons) is much higher than that of the current carriers in PNP transistors (holes).
