http://people.senecac.on.ca/john.kawenka/EDV255/bjt.html can i help you ?? The name transistor comes from transferring an electrical signal across a resistor

A transistor is a three-terminal semiconductor device that can perform two functions that are needed to design an electronic circuits as (amplification and switching )

transistor switch is a device for controlling a relatively large current between or voltage across two terminals by means of a small control current or voltage applied at a third terminal.

amplification consists of magnifying a signal by transferring energy to it from an external source

The Field Effect Transistor(FET) | The bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) | is an active device(gate , drain , source)it is a voltage controlled valve.The gate voltage VGS controls the drain current (1D). | is an active deviceis a three-element (emitter, base, and collector )it is a current control value.The base current Ib control the collector current (Ic) ' |

Regions of BJT operation | The cutoff | The active | The saturation | The breakdown | The transistor is off there is no conduction between the collector and emitterboth junctions are reverse biased the base current is very small, no current flows collector. ( IB ≈ 0 ) ( IC = 0) | The transistor is onthe transistor can act as a linear amplifier where the BE junction isforward biased and the CB junction is reverse biased. In this region the collector current is controlled by the base current ( IC = β IB) | The transistor is onthe transistor can act as a switch, where both junctions are forward biased. the collector current varies very little with a change in the base current. The VCE is small, a few tenths of volt. The collector current is dependent on VCE unlike in the active region | The transistor Is damageThat determines the physical limit of operation of the device. |

BJT is formed by doping ( Joining ) three sections of
