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 ...

Biasing an active device, such as a bipolar junction transistor (BJT), requires that you set the dc voltages and currents of the device. To optimize the desired result, you need various bias values.

Just as the common emitter amplifier and common base amplifier each tied those respective transistor terminals to a fixed potential and used the other two terminals as amplifier input and output, so ...

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, ...

Offered in a 5-lead TO-264 package, the 15-A NJL1302D (pnp) and NJ3281D (npn) ThermalTrak bipolar power transistors incorporate an internal thermally matched bias diode to eliminate warm-up time, ...
