Transistors - NPN & PNP - Basic Introduction

This electronics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into NPN and PNP transistors which are known as BJTs or Bipolar Junction Transistors. This video discusses the 3 operating regions of a transistor - the cutoff, active, and saturation region. It also explains how the transistors act as switches and how to determine the current and voltages in a transistor base bias circuit.

    15 years ago a Darlington transistor pair popped up on the 10th question of my 80 question Master Electrician exam. I was like...”What is this sorcery?”. I had no clue what I was looking at. The prep course for that exam didn’t go too far with electronics, diodes etc. Transistors, explained by this tutor, were the perfect gateway for me to go beyond timer relays and basic sensor knowledge.

    Very useful. Easy to understand. Well explained. Be careful not to confuse BPJT npn, with MOSFET N channel. In an N channel enhancement MOSFET, the gate(base) voltage has to be above the drain (collector) voltage, at least by the gate treshold voltage. in a MOSFET the gate(base) is completely isolated/different circuit to the drain-source. BPJTs are obsolete. MOSFETs have superior technical performance.

    BJTs aren't obsolete. You can use them for current amplification. You can't do that with MOSFETs because they are voltage-controlled
