  2. Bipolar junction transistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_junction_transistor

    A bipolar junction transistor (BJT) is a type of transistor that uses both electrons and electron holes as charge carriers. In contrast, a unipolar transistor, such as a field-effect transistor (FET), uses only one kind of charge carrier.

  3. Common collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_collector

    Figure 2: A negative-feedback amplifier. The circuit can be explained by viewing the transistor as being under the control of negative feedback.From this viewpoint, a common-collector stage (Fig. 1) is an amplifier with full series negative feedback.

  4. Common emitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_emitter

    In electronics, a common-emitter amplifier is one of three basic single-stage bipolar-junction-transistor (BJT) amplifier topologies, typically used as a voltage amplifier. It offers high current gain (typically 200), medium input resistance and a high output resistance.

  5. Heterojunction bipolar transistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterojunction_bipolar...

    A heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) is a type of bipolar junction transistor (BJT) that uses different semiconductor materials for the emitter and base regions, creating a heterojunction. The HBT improves on the BJT in that it can handle signals of very high frequencies, up to several hundred GHz.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2N3904

    A 2N3904 made by Motorola.The pinout from left to right is: Emitter, Base, Collector. [1] A 2N3904 (lower left) in a TO-92 package on a breadboard. The 2N3904 is a common NPN bipolar junction transistor used for general-purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications.

  7. Common base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_base

    At low frequencies and under small-signal conditions, the circuit in Figure 1 can be represented by that in Figure 2, where the hybrid-pi model for the BJT has been employed. The input signal is represented by a Thévenin voltage source v s with a series resistance R s and the load is a resistor R L. This circuit can be used to derive the ...

  8. Bipolar transistor biasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_transistor_biasing

    A load line diagram, illustrating an operating point in the transistor's active region.. Biasing is the setting of the DC operating point of an electronic component. For bipolar junction transistors (BJTs), the operating point is defined as the steady-state DC collector-emitter voltage and the collector current with no input signal applied.

  9. 2N2222 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2N2222

    The 2N2222 is a common NPN bipolar junction transistor (BJT) used for general purpose low-power amplifying or switching applications. It is designed for low to medium current, low power, medium voltage, and can operate at moderately high speeds. It was originally made in the TO-18 metal can as shown in the picture.
