All About PNP Transistors

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 ...

Evolution of the Transistor

In the beginning, there was the point-contact transistor. This was the very first transistor ever made, built by Walter Brattain with the help of John Bardeen. It was made of two gold foil contacts ...

Programmable Unijunction Transistor (PUT) – A Quick Rescript

What is a Programmable Unijunction Transistor (PUT)? Simple – it is a three-lead electronic semiconductor device, similar to a unijunction transistor (UJT), except that its behaviour can be controlled ...
