Two slices of N-type semiconductor, the emitter and the collector, form a sandwich with a layer of P-type semiconductor, called the base. P- and N-type semiconductors are made with different ...

If the real circuit or an accurate simulation shows a different voltage drop between base and emitter (for example ... For example, to use a 47 ohm collector resistor, you could adjust the ...

Under the assumption of a linear current gain of the form \beta(s) = \beta_0/(1 + s\tau), equivalent circuits are derived for the resistive and capacitive loaded emitter follower, and the effect of ...

Abstract: Two commonly used basic transistor blocking oscillator circuits are considered: 1) a common-emitter with collector-to-base transformer coupling, and 2) a common-base circuit with ...

Once an input of 0.6 volts has triggered the base leg, a much larger current can flow through the collector or emitter leg. Transistors are easily damaged so it is important not to mix up the ...

My board is available on OSH Park here. Wiring up the PCB is pretty straightforward. Transistors on the die are arranged base-emitter-collector, while most discrete transistors are ...
