Understanding Transistors: Types & Uses by Nipun chamika is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Transistors are electronic components that act as switches and are central to electronics. There are two main types, NPN and PNP, with most circuits using NPN transistors. Transistors have three leads called the base, collector, and emitter. The base activates the transistor when a small current or voltage is applied, allowing a larger current to flow between the collector and emitter. For example, in a simple circuit a pressed switch provides current to the transistor base, enabling current from a 9V sourc
