A transistor is a semiconductor(like many) that amplifies and switches electrical signals(electronic switch) in a circuit, it is used inside a circuit which requires switching without been manually operated.
they invented the first transistor:)
The word "transistor" is a blend of "transfer" and "resistor," reflecting its function of transferring electrical signals across a resistor. It was coined by John R. Pierce, an engineer at Bell Laboratories, where the first transistor was developed in 1947.
The operating point of a transistor is called the Q point because Q stands for "quiescent," which means a state of rest or inactivity. It represents the DC bias conditions at which the transistor operates when there is no input signal. This point is crucial for analyzing the transistor's behavior and ensuring proper amplification.
A transistor on an integrated circuit is typically around 14 nanometers in size, while a human hair is about 50,000-100,000 nanometers thick. This means that a transistor is much smaller than a human hair by several orders of magnitude.
A bipolar transistor uses both majority and minority charge carriers for conduction, while a field effect transistor primarily relies on majority charge carriers. Field effect transistors have a higher input impedance compared to bipolar transistors. Additionally, bipolar transistors are current-operated devices, while field effect transistors are voltage-operated devices.
A silicon transistor is a transistor made of silicon.
The importance of the Transistor was that it could amplify an electrical signal. It was thus an analog of the vacuum tube devices, and could take advantage of the circuit history and applications that had built up over the preceding 50 years.
The active region of a transistor is when the transistor has sufficient base current to turn the transistor on and for a larger current to flow from emitter to collector. This is the region where the transistor is on and fully operating.
A Unijunction Transistor is a transistor that acts solely as a switch.
Similar to a 2N3906 PNP transistor
how does a transistor behaviour
I believe that is resistor transistor technology TTL transistor transistor logic
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.
I can give you several sentences.I bought a transistor radio.The transistor amplified the signal.We studied the transistor in science class.
no is not !
A Darlington pair uses two transistors connected to behave as a single transistor with a very high current gain (beta). Transistor-1 has its collector connected to the collector of transistor-2. Transistor-1 has its emitter connected to the base of transistor-2. The base of transistor-1 with the emitter and collector of transistor-2 is used as a single transistor.
the best way is to compeair the data sheet of that transistor to the readings of that transistor. . . . .and u can get the readings of that transistor by using a fungction genrator and a c.r.o
