bipolarjunction transistor - (BJT), A three terminal device in which emitter to collector current is controlled by base current.
junction diode - diode. A semiconductor diode in which the rectifying characteristics occur at a junction between the n-type and p-type semiconductor materials.
junction - Contact or connection between two or more wires or cables. The area where the p-type material and n-type material meet in a semiconductor.
unijunction transistor - Three terminal device that acts as a diode with its own internal voltage divider biasing circuit.

Uni-junction
Unijunction Transistor The unijunction transistor (UJT) works like a switch. It doesn't amplify the voltage, it just lets current through or not depending on the in input voltage. Irrespective


Diodes
Diodes Diodes are one of the most common semiconductor devices. As we know from the last page, both N and P type silicon conduct electricity. The conductivity (or resistance) of both is by how doped

Thyristor
Thyristors Thyristors have a similar function to Unijunctions they act as switches. Thyrstors use current flow as a switch. There are two types of thyristors. Silicon-Controlled Rectifi

Bipolar Transistors
Bipolar Transistors One of the two types of transistors are bipolar transistors. From Diodes we learnt about PN junctions. Now with bipolar transistors we add another layer to make it PNP or NPN depe
