Over the recent weeks here at Hackaday, we’ve been taking a look at the humble transistor. In a series whose impetus came from a friend musing upon his students arriving with highly developed ...

This course presents in-depth discussion and analysis of metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) including the equilibrium characteristics, ...

It used to be a rite of passage to be able to do the math necessary to design various bipolar transistor amplifier ...

The transistor has been around since the nineteen forties. In fact, the FET (Field Effect Transistor) was actually developed before the more common bipolar type. Bipolar transistors use semiconductor ...

The basic construction of Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) comprises of two P-N junctions producing three connecting terminals with each terminal being given a name to identify it from the other two.

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the first ...

A transistor – a word blend of "transfer" and "resistor" – is a fundamental component of today's advanced electronics. Essentially, a transistor, as one of the foundational elements of modern ...
