3.Explain the principle of operation for a bi-polar transistor and field effect transistor.
- Bipolar transistors conduct current using both electrons and holes in the same device.
Operation of a bipolar transistor as a current amplifier requires that the collector-base junction
be reverse biased and the emitter-base junction be forward biased.
- FET uses the voltage applied to its input terminal (called the Gate), to control the current
flowing from the source to drain, making the Field Effect Transistor a “Voltage” operated device.
FETs are extensively used in Integrated Circuits (ICs) due to their compact size and significantly
lower power consumption.
