Amidst the advances in CMOS and wide bandgap semiconductor technology, you can easily forget that the first transistor invented by William Shockley in 1949 was a bipolar junction transistor (BJT).

Bipolar transistors amplify current and that makes them a bit harder to use. Recently, [Jenny List] did a series on transistor amplifiers including the topic of this Circuit VR, the common emitter ...

A bipolar junction transistor has three layers, each connected by an electrical terminal. As discussed above, these terminals are base (B), collector (C), and emitter (E). Moreover, it has two PN ...

Bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) are cornerstone components in the complex landscape of electronic circuits, conducting the operation of amplification and signal processing. A comprehensive grasp ...

There are two main types of transistor: bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) and field effect transistors (FETs). BJTs are made of doped materials and can be configured as NPN and PNP.

This bipolar junction transistor SPICE model was developed to improve students’ confidence in their amplifier analysis and design techniques. The model is used to verify amplifier design calculations ...

The first bipolar junction transistor was invented in 1947 at Bell laboratories. “Two polarities” is abbreviated as bipolar, hence the name Bipolar junction transistor. BJT is a three terminal device ...
