Just some extra facts cause I couldn't fit it in the video: The 'ON' and 'OFF' states of transistors are used to represent 1s and 0s in computer chips. Theres BILLIONS of tiny transistors in em that are used for logic gates, memory and computational stuff 🦾😄
We need full length videos and tutorials man! You really have potential to grow on RU-vid if you do that and keep doing what you’re doing now! Best of luck man and thanks for the awesome videos!
And he even explains many parts wrong in very single video. After semiconductor, every single thing he says is wrong or could confuse ppl who want to learn something. Short example for everyone without any knowledge: Why do you have to apply unipolar voltage on a "bipolar" transistor, instead of bipolar voltage? (because he gets his knowledge from Google where it "was" written wrongly but spread like wildfire from ppl like him) That's the sad reason you need to go through a trainee instead of RU-vid to learn something...
@@Umusiagreed, this stupid channel make me angry. my friend said i was wrong about things i taught him about electronic, and he showed me this stupid channel😤. insulting my degree😕 in one of his video about resistor, he even said resistor is "slowing down electron", "it's like a speed bump". can you believe that? if it was true, then we all can replace an expensive delay pedal with a single or more resistor for our guitar😅
From a practical 30k foot perspective, yes you are right. But when teaching to a virgin audience, care should be taken to properly differentiate between a vagina vs an anus. Just say'n...
@@Alex-zs7vl Not quite correct. In a bipolar transistor its primary the current (= number of electrons flowing) driving the output. Of course there is a function (logarithmic in this case), but it's the voltage being dependent on the current not the other way around. FETs are voltage driven devices (like vacuum tubes), but BJTs aren't.
@@latinumbavariae you can control it in current or in voltage, if you apply a voltage between base and emitter the voltage will create a current and the bjt will work (obviously applying also voltage between collector and emitter), in all real components the voltage depends on the current and the current depends on the voltage
@@polycrystallinecandy my semiconductors intro class had a single question on the final, told to us on day 1. How does a transistor work, bjt and mosfet? If you couldn't explain the operation and the maths of transistors at the end of the year, you fail. If you pass, you know far more than this video can teach you.
BJT transistors Are rarely used in computer chips anymore. Most computer chips are based on FETs (Field Effect Transistors) which are basically more comparable to ancient tubes.
It‘s a really great Video and I have never seen a Transistor explanation with the npn semiconductors in a short. I really like that. Small correction for the BJT: you don’t need a Voltage on the base you need a voltage between the base and emitter -> results in a CURRENT. The BJT is a current connected „gate“. The most transistors in computers today are MOSFETs. MOSFETs are voltage controlled „gates“ so they need only a voltage on gate (it’s called different here) to enable the source drain current. Hope this was helpful ❤
I think this channel is one of the best for electronics, I only watched shorts from this channel and i can say is i am always happy to learn new electronics components every time
Doesn't really matter actually, every equation and rule we have is made with conventional current. Since the rules go both ways, you can just use them by multiplying them with (-1). It's mostly just a tradition at this point
From a person who’s spent hours of their life researching this, this was one of the best, most concise explanation I have ever seen. If only I had this a year ago…
Used mostly to regulate voltage, doesn't anything trough until a specific voltage, you connect it parallel with something, voila, now your circuit is that same voltage as it the voltage must be equal in parallel circuit. Also use them as shunts
Yea, and by accident he explained it wrong - you can turn "on" BJP with current, not voltage. And yes, there is a difference. If u want to use transistors with voltage use UJT, for example MOSFETs.
That's awesome. It's like _the most_ important non-basic part, and to be honest, i didn't know about them until i started subsribing to a bunch if electronics channels yesterday. I am not a pro (obviously) at this point, but these will really let me make a lot of cool projects in the future.
I wish this channel was around when I was learning this stuff a few years ago. Litterallly answered all my original "how does it do that" questions of transistors faster than 20 books. Lol This is good stuff please keep it up!
Bro i swear to god i've studied EE for almost a year and a half right now and i haven't understood transistors well until you've came out with this great 60 seconds vid
Bro your the only person to properly explain what it is or how it works. When I was studying electrical engineering in university the professors explanations were clear as mud. Like using a word to describe its own definition.
I have never been subjected to so much hype and excitement over one of the simplest electronic components ever created. Please do a series on logic gates, binary operations and digital memory.
Thats awesome dude, each and every detail is crystal clear, we need more info about every single component (like resistor, capacitor, vlsi and so on) in electronics please....
