TRANSISTORS THE BIPOLAR TRANSISTOR TRANSISTORS A transistor can be used as an amplifier The bipolar transistor is made up of three to control electric motor speed such as AC parts: the emitter, the base and the blower motors, or as solid state switches collector. There are two types of bipolar to control actuators such as fuel injectors. transistors: the PNP and the NPN. In the PNP transistor the emitter is made from This chapter will cover each of the P-type material, the base is N-type following four areas: material and the collector is P-type material. For the PN transistor to Transistor Operation operate, the emitter must be connected to Transistor Applications positive, the base to negative and the collector to negative. Transistor Gain Integrated Circuits The NPN transistor has an emitter made from N-type material. Its base is P-type Transistors are made from the same N- material and the collector is N-type material. For the NPN transistor to type and P-type materials as diodes and operate, the emitter must be connected to employ the same principles. Transistors, negative, the base to positive and the however, have two PN junctions instead collector to positive Aside from the way in of just one like a diode has. The two PN which the NPN and PNP transisto
