Lab #8: Transistor basics of the transistor a few simple circuits No lab report, just excel spreadsheet First time we do this lab! Be prepared for problems! Bardeen’s “transfer resistance” device
Transistor Small “base” current controls “large” emitter-collector current. Voltage drop across forward-biased diode about 0.7 V Two back-to-back diodes, one forward and one “reverse” biased. Three terminal device: emitter, collector, base Read lab carefully; it is short.
