Transistors And Its Practical Applications
T he most widely used products in the Electronics industries is a transistor and its also the major component of any electronics equipment, so its necessary for all of us to know what basically a transistor is....and what can be its basic applications in daily life ? When any lecturer asks you in VIVA or as a general question "What is a transistor? And its application…." The basic answer for this is A transistor is "Transfer of Resistance" and if it is to be technically explained then its as below.... A transistor is a semiconductor device used to amplify and switch electronic signals and electrical power. Prior to the development of transistors, vacuum (electron) tubes (or in the UK "thermionic valves" or just "valves") were the main active components in electronic equipment. ADVANTAGES : The key advantages that have allowed transistors to replace their vacuum tube predecessors in most applica...
