Up at the top, there was a door. And beyond the door was a world I never could have imagined: the Kingdom of Fantasy! Along with my guide, a frog named Scribblehopper, I set off on an incredible adventure to save the Queen of the Fairies. But along the way, I had to face giant scorpions, witches, sea serpents, pixies, and dozens of other creatures that I had only ever heard stories about. Holey cheese, what a journey!
A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals and electrical power. It is composed of semiconductor material with at least three terminals for connection to an external circuit.he ratio of these currents varies depending on the type of transistor, and even for a particular type, varies depending on the collector current. In the example light-switch circuit shown, the resistor is chosen to provide enough base current to ensure the transistor will be saturated.
Electrons are pulled from the emitter into the baseâand then from the base into the collector. And the transistor switches to its on state: The small current that we turn on at the base makes a big current flow between the emitter and the collector.By turning a small input current into a large output current, the transistor acts like an amplifier.But it also acts like a switch at the same time. transistor works when the electrons and the holes start moving across the two junctions between the n-type and p-type silicon. Let's connect the transistor up to some power. Suppose we attach a small positive voltage to the base, make the emitter negatively charged, and make the collector positively charged.
