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 ...

In this article, we’re going to focus on using common bipolar junction transistors instead ... but it depends on the transistor) when the BJT is ‘switched on’ but for our purposes it is ...

In this module on BJTs (bipolar junction transistors), we will cover the following topics: BJT Device structures, Energy band diagrams, Active bias, Leakage current, Recombination in base, Hoe ...

Regular transistors, known as Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT) meaning that they are made from junctions that have a positive and a negative (PN) junction utilize current as the input and ...

"NPN" and "PNP" refer to the arrangement of the different types of semiconductor material in a Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT). In an NPN transistor, there's a layer of p-type semiconductor material ...

The sandwich transistor was William Shockley's brainchild. It's also called the junction transistor. While the rest of the lab was busy researching Bardeen and Brattain's point-contact transistor ...

I investigate the application of homotopy methods to solving nonlinear equations describing circuits consisting of bipolar junction and MOS transistors that traditionally pose simulation difficulties.

In 1950, Shockley developed the first Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT). In comparison to a vacuum tube, transistors are more reliable, power efficient and of lesser size. The transistor is a ...

GaN and GaAs are used for a variety of transistors, including bipolar junction (BJT), enhancement-mode MOSFET and high electron mobility (HEMT). See gallium nitride and gallium arsenide.
