In this article, we’re going to focus on using common bipolar junction transistors instead of relays to replace physical switches ... in this case. Most NPN-type BJTs will work fine though.

Abstract: A series of 20-a silicon XP2Y transistors has been developed together with a series of 20-a silicon NPNP switches. Characteristics of the devices will be compared with respect to high ...

As a switch, it can be in one of two distinct states – ON ... What does "NPN" or "PNP" mean in terms of a transistor? "NPN" and "PNP" refer to the arrangement of the different types of semiconductor ...

This circuit is called a high-side switch – it enables you to toggle ... enough that we typically just refer to them as NPN or PNP transistors. These are all under the transistor umbrella ...

This schematic is a project in which we control the switching of bulb/lamp using Arduino and NPN TIP120 Power transistor (used as a switch).

The diagram illustrates the basic design of an NPN junction transistor ... the emitter and the collector. The transistor acts like an insulator or a switch that is turned off.

Current transistor technology switch states in the order of hundreds of nanoseconds, but this new material could potentially cut this down to a fraction of that. This is crucial for high ...

The negative and positive connections made by a PNP transistor are also the reverse of those of an NPN. Transistors can function as switches and amplifiers. During operation, supplied voltage modifies ...
