Depletion Type MOSFET - Construction, Operation and Characteristics: As we know already that when the gate is biased negative w.r.t. the source in an N-channel JFET, the depletion-region widths are…
Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET) - Construction, Symbols and Operation: Depending upon the majority charge carriers, Junction Field Effect Transistor (JFET) have been classified into two types, namely (i) N-channel…
Pin Photodiode - Definition, Working and Applications: The PIN photodiode is one of the most common photodetectors, since the depletion-region thickness (intrinsic layer) can be tailored to optimize the quantum…
Ebers Moll Model for PNP Transistor: Device modelling aims at relating physical device parameters to device terminal characteristics. Device modelling is especially important for integrated circuits, since simple and accurate…
Explain Transistor Current Components: The various transistor current components which flow across the forward-biased emitter junction and reverse biased collector junction are indicated in Fig. 10.11. The current flowing into…
Transistor Action : Operation of PNP Transistor: Transistor action - Transistors of both types (P-N-P and N-P-N) behave exactly in the same way except change in biasing and majority carriers.…
Baritt diode - Working and Applications: The barrier-inject transit time (BARITT) diode is basically a back-to-back pair of diodes biased into reach-through condition. It belongs to the transit-time microwave diode…
Power Diode - Structure, Symbol, Characteristics and Types: Diodes find many applications in electronics and electrical engiÂneering circuits. Power diodes play a significant role in power electronics for conversion of…
