Electronics.a semiconductor device that amplifies, oscillates, or switches the flow of current between two terminals by varying the current or voltage between one of the terminals and a third: although much smaller in size than a vacuum tube, it performs similar functions without requiring current ...
Its transistorized electronics and communications devices proved essential to the development of missiles and rockets, and, in later years, the personal computer and internet industries. Margaret O'Mara, Wired, 13 Jan. 2022 Word History First Known Use 1952, in the meaning defined above Time Tra...

A junction transistor manufactured by a process in which the surface of a chip is passivated with a thin film of oxide, dopants being introduced by successive etching and diffusion. From: Modern Dictionary of Electronics (Seventh Edition), 1999 ...
Martin Plonus, in Electronics and Communications for Scientists and Engineers, 2001 The Grounded-Base Transistor The majority current—electrons in the npn transistor and holes in the pnp transistor—“arrives” in the collector region as Ic. The efficiency of charge transport from emitter to collect...
NOTE: Please swap the T1 and T2 transistors with each other. Meaning T1 should be replaced with 2N2222 and T2 should be replaced with 2N2907 This strange transistorized device, sometimes known as an audio light detector, transforms light energy into melody. Simply placing it close to a bulb...
It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly-used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the relevant art and will not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly ...
Isolated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT): IGBT is a power semiconductor device used as an electronics switch in much high power and modern appliances such as electric cars, trains, variable speed refrigerators, air conditioning systems. What are the Characteristics of a Transistor? The characteristics...
When using a transistor as a switch (digital mode), DC Beta (hFE) has no meaning because the transistor is not operating in the active region that amplifiers work in. A transistor switch is either in saturation mode (fully on) or cut-off mode (fully off). In other words, the gain fo...
In bipolar transistors, Gm = qic/(kT), where q is the electronic charge, ic is the collector current, and kT has the usual meaning. For MOS transistors Gm = (2μ iDS Cox Z/L)½, where μis the electron mobility, iDS is the drain-source current, Cox is the gate-oxide ...
