Solid-state device technologies, which are available to the amplifier designer, fall, broadly, into three categories: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and junction diodes; junction field effect ...

Over on his YouTube channel [Aaron Danner] explains biasing transistors with current sources in the 29th video of his Transistors Series. In this video, he shows how to replace a bias resistor (and ...

The company’s first bipolar transistors in its miniature PowerDI5 surface-mount package are designed on a fifth-generation matrix emitter process, yielding a range of 12 NPN and PNP transistors with a ...

This tester is primarily meant to test bipolar transistors. It can indicate the type of the transistor as well as identify its base, collector and emitter pins. The circuit is very simple. The ...

In this lesson, students build two circuits and explore how transistors function. When Bell Labs introduced the transistor in June of 1948, a spokesman proudly announced "This cylindrical object . . .

There was no doubt about it, point-contact transistors were fidgety. The transistors being made by Bell just didn't work the same way twice, and on top of that, they were noisy. While one lab at Bell ...

The world’s fastest transistor has been developed by a pair of US researchers, possibly paving the way for a new generation of super-charged electronic chips. Milton Feng and Walid Hafez at the ...
