The two types of standard transistors are PNP and NPN which differs in circuit symbols. The layers of semiconductor material used to make the transistor are denoted by the letters. To keep a straight ...

Manufacturing companies, particularly those that mass-produce electronic circuits, work pretty much around bipolar junction transistors, like PNP and NPN. However, choosing between these two BJTs can ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backward” but ...

The transistor is probably the most important invention in electronic engineering and the basis for nearly all integrated circuits (ICs). The transistor is a three-terminal electronic device that can ...

The ISL73096EH is a radiation hardened ultra high frequency NPN/PNP transistor array. It contains three NPN transistors and two PNP transistors on a common substrate. The device covers all of the ...

LEUVEN, Belgium--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Magwel announces that TowerJazz has evaluated and qualified Magwel’s Power Transistor Modeling tool (PTM). TowerJazz is now providing PTM techfiles to facilitate ...

Zetex Semiconductors has introduced a series of miniature NPN and PNP transistors for MOSFET gate driving in latest generation power supplies. ZXTN and ZXTP transistors The first bipolars to be ...

The smaller electronic components become, the more complex their manufacture becomes. This has been a major problem for the ...

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has ...
