Day 116, Tuesday, 8 March, 2016 Diodes and Transistors Warm Up Teenage Communication Electronics Diodes rectifiers Transistors Amplifiers Elements in Logic Circuits
Warm Up Answers 52. V = IRD 15 volts 54. V = IRI = V/RB 3.0 amps
Batteries wired in Series and in Parallel (increases volts) (increases Amps)
Teenage Communication 1/3 of teenage communication is accomplished with 20 words.
That hella sucks!
Band gap in a semiconductor
Diode Check valve
P-N Junction in a Diode Negatively doped region: atoms that donate electrons Positively doped region: atoms that accept electrons (holes)
Light Emitting Diode
Light Emitting Diode (LED)
Diode Laser
Diodes (used in rectifiers) Allows one way flow of current
Rectifiers (bridge)
Pay Attention!
Transistor A transistor is a semiconductor device that uses a small amount of voltage or electrical current to control a larger change in voltage or current. Wikipedia

Schematic of a Transistor
Labeling of the Transistor Leads In Academics: Collector, Base, Emitter In Industry: Source, Gate, Drain
Transistor
Two uses for transistors 1. Amplifier 2. Element in a logic circuit
Two uses for transistors 1. Amplifier Weak signal to powerful output 2. Element in a logic circuit Series: “and gate” Parallel: “or gate”
The Transistor as Amplifier Phones, radios, TVs, stereos, etc.
The Transistor as element in a Logic Circuit “and” gates (wired in series) “or” gates (wired in parallel)
