1
Transistors & Semiconductors
2
Transistor Amplifying Switch – Current to base enables current from emitter to collector – Base requires small amount of current relative to emitter
3
Silicon SI = Element 14 – 4 electrons in outer shell – 8 would be full
4
Silicon Silicon crystal – Stable diamond like structure – Thermal noise occasionally bumps electrons, but settle back rapidly
5
Doping Doped silicon has impurities – N type : Extra electrons Phosphorus – P type : Short an electron Boron
6
Doped Conductors Doped silicon: – Free roaming electrons or holes – Phosphorus/Boron ions
7
N + P Sandwich N&P sandwich forms neutral area : Depletion layer – Insulation against flow
8
N + P Sandwich N&P sandwich forms : Depletion layer – Electrons/holes merge – Ions present barrier to more movement
9
N + P Sandwich = Diode Current flow into N closes depletion layer Current flow into P increases depletion layer
10
Transistor = Diode Sandwich Transistor is 3 layers: – NPN or PNP Default is to insulate
11
Transistor = Diode Sandwich Positive current at base removes spare negatives – Shrink P N depletion layer Relatively small current at base http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=play er_embedded&v=9CrcRabTQ0s# http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=play er_embedded&v=9CrcRabTQ0s#
12
MOS MOS – Metal Oxide – "Metal" conductor – Oxide insulator Charge to conductor produces conductive layer in silicon via field effect
13
MOSFET Metal Oxide Field Effect Transistor – NPN regions of silicon – Conductor used to create channel Channel requires no current!!!
14
CMOS CMOS : Complementary MOSFETS – NPN and PNP used together Always high or low signal http://www.youtube.com/watch ?v=QO5FgM7MLGg&list=FL8JW MIsIgFMX3tv2BU-K4Uw (Jump to 3:00) http://www.youtube.com/watch ?v=QO5FgM7MLGg&list=FL8JW MIsIgFMX3tv2BU-K4Uw
15
Fabrication Circuits "printed" with photo reactive chemicals light http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35jWSQXk u74&list=FL8JWMIsIgFMX3tv2BU-K4Uw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=35jWSQXk u74&list=FL8JWMIsIgFMX3tv2BU-K4Uw – Minute 2
