Can fet be used as a transisitors?
No. The Field Effect Transistor is a different technology than the Bipolar Junction Transistor. That cannot substitute for one another.
How many states does a transistor have?
A transistor can be in three conditions or states. It can be active (at a voltage higher than the emitter), in saturation or cut off (no current).
Why the transistor is not used in switching 'AC voltage'?
The transistor is a "single direction current flow" device. Typically, for an NPN device, the collector must be more positive than the emitter for the device to bias on. You could use the transistor in an AC circult, but it would only conduct on half the cycle.
What is Sink and source mode of transistor?
Source mode at output provides safety than sink at output
How is the NPN transistor different from the PNP transistor?
"P" is for Positive and "N" is for Negative So basically put a PNP Transistor Would use N to Switch P, in the name "PNP" or "NPN" the first character is for the polarity of the Collector-pin, the second for the Base-Pin, and the third for the Emmiter-pin. So if you have a PNP Transistor you can`t just replace it with an NPN as the polarities differ. If you can find a way to change those polarities then sure it could work. The Collector-pin basically receives the bigger current. The Base-pin determines how much of that current will be transferred to the emmiter-pin. So in a PNP the base current could for example be 0V and the Collector 5V, this will allow a free flow of current from Collector to Emmiter, the usage of a transistor in many cases is to switch high current with lower current. The main difference is that a PNP transistor uses "holes" as carriers and an NPN transistor uses electrons as carriers (It is to be remembered that the flow of current is always in the direction opposite to that of the flow of electrons). The difference in the symbol for the two transistors are that the PNP transistor will have an arrow pointed to the base from the emitter, and the NPN has it pointing outside.
Which is larger a lymphcyte or a human hair?
A human hair is bigger than a lymphocyte human hair- 200 micrometers, lymphocyte 20 micrometers
Is the tip of a human hair or a transistor smaller?
Transistors are made that are smaller than a human hair. Used as part of an integrated circuit chip, which may contain thousands of transistors.
