Slide 1

Transistor Construction

There are two types of transistors: pnp and npn-type.

Note: the labeling of the transistor:


E - Emitter
B - Base
C - Collector

3 Regions of Operation
Active
Operating range of the amplifier.
Cutoff
The amplifier is basically off. There is voltage but little
current.
Saturation
The amplifier is full on. There is little voltage but lots of
current.

Common Emitter Configuration

The Emitter is common to both input (base-emitter) and output (collector-emitter).


The input is on the Base and the output is on the Collector.

Actual Amplifier Currents

Slide 14
IC = IE + ICBO

ICBO = minority collector current. This is usually so small that it can be ignored, except in
high power transistors and in high temperature environments.

IB 0 A

[Formula 3.9]

When IB = 0A the transistor is in cutoff, but there is some minority current flowing called
ICEO.

Limitations of Operation for Each Configuration

VCE is at maximum and IC is at minimum (ICmax=ICEO) in the cutoff region.


IC is at maximum and VCE is at minimum (VCE max = VCEsat = VCEO) in the
saturation region.
The transistor operates in the active region between saturation and cutoff.
