    3.01 PNP and NPN Transistor

    Uploaded by

    VamsiMadupu
    Both NPN and PNP transistors are bipolar junction transistors that allow for current amplification through controlling current at their base. A current at the base allows for a much larger current across the emitter and collector leads. NPN transistors conduct more as base current increases and conduct less as base current decreases, ultimately shutting off. PNP transistors operate oppositely, conducting more as base current is removed rather than added.

    Question Answer

    Working of Both NPN and PNP are bipolar junction transistors (BJTs). BJTs are current-controlled
    NPN transistor transistors that allow for current amplification.
    and PNP
    transistor A current at the base of the transistor allows for a much larger current across the emitter
    and collector leads. NPN and PNPs are exactly the same in their function, they provide
    amplification and/or switching capability.
    NPN Transistor
    This is how a NPN transistor works:
    As you increase current to the base of a NPN transistor, the transistor is turned on more and
    more until it conducts fully from collector to emitter.
    And as you decrease current to the base of a NPN transistor, the transistor turns on less and
    less, until the current is so low, the transistor no longer conducts across collector to emitter,
    and shuts off.

    PNP Transistor
    A PNP transistor functions the total opposite way.
    As current is sinked from the base (flows out from the base to ground), the transistor is on
    and conducts across to power on the output load.
