What is semiconductor
device?
Semiconductor
device is
an electronic
component that
exploits
the electronic
properties
of semiconductor
material,
principally silicon, ger
manium, and gallium
arsenide, as well Semiconductor devices have
as organic replaced vacuum tubes in most
semiconductors. applications. They use electrical
conduction in the solid state rather than
the gaseous state or thermionic emission in
a vacuum.
Types of semicondutcor devices
Transistors
• A transistor is a semiconductor device used
to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical
power. It is composed of semiconductor
material usually with at least three terminals for
connection to an external circuit.
When you apply 0.7V from base to emitter you will turn the
transistor ON and allow a current to flow from collector to
emitter.
