A reasonable choice of BJT is the venerable 2N2222. It’s available worldwide, is very inexpensive, reasonably fast, and can dissipate up to 500 milliwatts of power which is more than sufficient ...

They fill a similar role as a bipolar junction transistor like the 2N2222, making it possible to switch large loads. But fundamentally they are different. Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistors have ...

In this module on BJTs (bipolar junction transistors), we will cover the following topics: BJT Device structures, Energy band diagrams, Active bias, Leakage current, Recombination in base, Hoe ...

Also called a "bipolar junction transistor" (BJT), it is one of two major transistor categories; the other is "field-effect transistor" (FET). Although the first transistor was bipolar and the ...

The first useful transistor, the bipolar junction transistor, was constructed by Bell Laboratories in the 1950s; it was so named because the current is created by combining positive and negative ...

This design is the classical bipolar junction transistor (so called because it has two p-n junctions) that brings key elements of a transistor on a two-dimensional plane, including the gate, which ...

A transistor is made of semiconductor, mostly of silicon in present days. Two types of constructions are possible, either a p-region sandwiched between two n-regions or vice versa, as sketched in ...

There are many different symptoms -- and several different types -- of bipolar disorder. The primary symptoms are dramatic and unpredictable mood swings. The types of bipolar disorder range from ...

Perhaps the tritest advice in self-help books over the past two decades is that we should not be afraid to fail. Failure is held up as a motivator, a learning experience, and a badge of honor. And ...

Bipolar disorder is a long-term mood disorder characterized by major fluctuations in mood — both high and low — that can impact daily functioning and behavior. Although bipolar disorder is a ...

Medications are usually the first line of treatment for bipolar disorder. Mood stabilizers, antidepressants, and benzodiazepines may be part of the management plan on their own or in combination ...
