Transistors, How do they work? 

Ikr

Yup

Kill it with fire.

I'm so glad I read this comment before it showed up in the video. I can't stop laughing now

Nightmares

It reminds me of the dwarf gecko robots from metal gear solid 4

smiley phosphorus

Atleast you should thank this awesome video! :/

Yup. I was like.....waht????

Lol😂

was it supposed to be funny?

@@jinxy7869 Probably not, but a little humour always makes learning easier, intentional or not.

some people just hate to see a silicon atom brother happy 😒

it's not just you, there are millions more who are struggling with it

But it's the most important one for semiconductor and our hole technology is dependent on it

I agree, he did a great job and now I don’t have to stress over what a transistor is

@@Isaac-ue7td Yeah this is the best explanation about transistor, been watching a lot of videos but this one help me the most.

The presenter is not a "man" , it is a Large Language Module.

Comments full of bullshit

Smiley silicon atom : yes

nice name

ur name tho... its longer than my dream pp lol

that was terrifying

@@deepstariaenigmatica2601 it really caught me off guard lmao

I was really upset to find out they are doping too. Don't worry they won't be smiling for long.

hahaha I stopped the video and was about to comment this word for word until I saw you already said it

IT SPOOKED THE SHIT OUT OF ME THE FIRST TIME I SAW IT NGL

Ikr

must agree

This video has answered me more questions than 2 weeks of Electronic Devices lectures have

@@richardpouzyr9073 yhýhyhhhhhyhhhhhhhyyhhyhhhhyyyy

yeah and this video also provides u with additional nightmares, wat a great deal

only 3 dollars /p month to save you, well done!

Yah, we have just reached the first milestone. Thanks a lot friends for your love and support. We will keep on producing quality videos for you.

A series on electronics would be GREAT!

So clearly explained and nothing missed for a introduction - great work, thank you!

yes please make more!!!

Memember... Cute :)

If you used to be a girl, what would you be now? I'm confused.

@@foobarmaximus3506 haha, well technically a woman now. I used to be a girl who _drew_ characters for different science concepts so I could remember them better. I still do it sometimes, but way less.

@@kirtiparashar1726 Oops, typo! Memember sounds like a meme event for december. Not quite what I meant lol ( : remember*

​@@foobarmaximus3506A weird (but funny) way of saying "when I was a girl) for sure

I'm having trouble understanding how circuit boards, transistors, and capacitors work together to create a computational system. Where is the best place to start building a working knowledge of how these things work? Thanks

tenacious645 Hey look at crash course computer science I found it really helpful to understand how transistors can be used to build computers

mee tooo

Says transistors don't amplify signals, then describes exactly how transistors amplify signals. Brilliant mate, you done played yourself.

@Olav Viking @ Olav Viking. In some ways you are correct with your criticism, but I think you’re also a bit harsh on the narrator/video. Sure, you need a power supply and a base, collector, and emitter arrangement to amplify a signal presented to the BJ transistor’s base; agreed. However, the video depicts a (battery) power supply attached to the BJT. You're technically correct in that any “N” “P” “N” semiconductor (essentially 2 diodes connected together) transistor will not in itself form an amplifier. But the “N” “P” “N” semiconductor component is one of the most critical components (if not the most critical component) of an amplifier; and routinely technicians, engineers, and even discrete/other component catalogs refer to and/or list “N” “P” “N” semiconductors . . as “amplifiers”. The reason is; via varying the bias voltage presented to the base with an audio/other input signal they modulate the power supply rail voltage; and therefore provide an amplified version of the input signal to their emitter. Transistors are essentially active 3 terminal semiconductor devices act as either insulators or conductors depending on the aforementioned signal/bias voltage; and their ability to change between these 2 states means it has 2 basic functions; “amplification” (analogue electronics) and “switching” (digital electronics). I think the bigger concern with the video is the circuit arrangement towards the closing stages of the video; as the 2 stage transistor application has the emitter of the input/first stage connected directly to the base of the second stage transistor. In fact, the collector (not the emitter) of the input/first stage should be connected directly to the base of the second stage transistor. That said, I doubt too many people trying to learn how the transistor semiconductor works and relying upon these types of videos will understand analog/digital circuit design theory.

If its NPN

they are positive cause they lost an electron who are u willing to lose

The electrons though are quite the opposite!

김진수 this is so me. True to every last word. Wow.

Guy u did not expect to know this when u were below 7 or 10 years old so stop bullshit. Videos are better than books sometimes because of additionnal easy visual informations.

@@musiceditfor you're missing the point. What we meant was we finally understood in depth how a transistor works. It also implies that videos are better than books. What I can't understand is how in the world did this comment manage to trigger you 😂😂😂

Me too

Same

Lmao that made the whole video for me. If I could I'd subscribe again.

Oh jeez, please forgive them for trying to teach you something and it hurt your feelings!

had a rough day or something, Alter?

Why'd you watch the video then Alter? Golly chill out.

+Alter Kater Stop watching edutainment videos then, most are dumbed down. Go to class to learn then, you serious man.

@Visha Sri dont miss even a single bit in these as this the cell of a computer , srsly !

It's true

same here school or clz me smjh he nhi aaya

college is not there to teach you... it's there to make you into a debt-slave

I swear school is actually trying to complexify things just to confuse us but in reality everything is really simple it’s crazy.

@@skyz3ra exactly... it's known as anti-learning.. it makes simple things complex. True learning is making complex things simple. The matrix is for the sheep

I LIKE creepy Atoms!

ㄹㅇ ㄷ ㄷ ㄷ

true alox

Bird Box alien....

that is just my sleep paralysis demon

Not an electronics engineer, instead a computer scientist, but same. I always find myself asking the next "okay but why"...

When you break things down to the quantum level, they can make significantly less sense, with a lot of seemingly "arbitrary" numbers and rules. The reality is these rules can make a lot of sense but not in the sane way as informative Videos like these. For most real world applications quantum effects are pointless to consider, and it's best to just accept that things are the way they are.

Need microscopic videos.

hahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhaa

I think they start to stop smiling earlier when they are called "useless"

Kisi ko Sui parega to royega hi

😁👌😂😂😂😂🤦‍♂️😅😅

Poor bastards, become , Junkies!

you've noticed that too. Other than survivor, i hate all reality shows. Ghost stories, while interesting, don't belong on discovery channel

superasn 0

Ah yes, the saturday morning fixit shows you can watch on the sofa instead of fixing your pickup!

well said, dude. i second your idea.

Totally agree with you, not to mention all the reruns and the never ending repetitive commercials. Discovery channel becomes unbearable to watch. I consider the people from Discovery as a bunch of scammers. Some shows are on for decades without a single new episode, or they give it a different name with a different narration but they keep the content the same so that you think that it is a totally new show.

based on the glimpse of your life illustrated by your need for attention and the amount of intelligence displayed here, i doubt anyone will ask you anything. ever.

prodigalus its called a joke you depressing shit

It really is amazing how easily people can begin internet arguments.

People can't take a joke for godshake

The interesting thing is that prodigalus can say the exact same thing to himself.

Yes they do

TRX VLOGGER i don't think so. after all they're all heartless beings

Lord Black lol....

smilies were representing atoms (or you should say nucleus, since electrons were in the hands) not electrons.

Only when they are doping

One doubt pls: at 5:22 the animation shows electrons coming out from base,but the current direction indicator which is Arrow is quite opposite to flow of electrons explain why?

what chem classes do u take

I'm in my electrical engineering summary course as a mechanical engineer. This video explains transistors whereas in class they just say to connect them like so to make this circuit and to take their word that it will work.

Actually it helped me understand lol

Made me laugh. keep the creepy multi hand smiley!

Here we go... HP Love craft ftw!!!

Yes, the 4H smiley shall remain forever nameless. But if it did have a name, it would have to be Eldritch.

Nice to know that !

If I may ask, what is the software used to illustrate these drawings? I'd love to draw some things in electrical things for my job.

Learn Engineering in the circuit with two transistors, what do u connect the emitter of the second transistor to?

Ground

Consider a computer memory. The only terms which computer can understand is 1 & 0. ie; either on(1) or off(2). Now let's talk about transistor. If we feed a base voltage to a transisistor high enough the transistor starts conducting. We can call this ON state. if the base voltage we fed isn't high enough the transistor stops conducting which we can call the ' OFF' state. Computer interpret this ON state as 1 and.. OFF state as 0. That's how computer works, it stores info and stuffs like that.. Learning about Working of the transistor is pretty simple if we first knew why and where do we use it. Why the hell it has to act like a switch if we have a manual switch like the thing we use at our home?? Transistor is compact, doesn't have any moving parts and it is so so so so small hehe

@@spadikam9672 Oh, so basically if they receive a current that's too low they appear as "off" but if the current goes above a certain threshold they appear "on" and act accordingly. Lmao I honestly understood it better from your comment than the video

@@TheFilipFonky yeh.. that's exactly how it works hehee 😊🖐️

f

@@TheFilipFonky but how the computer decides when it needs a low voltage or high voltage for each transistor?

You shouldn't be afraid of electronics. My brother forgot more about electronics than I learned. But I studied it for about 4 years , 35 years ago, at evening classes. My brother sat at home watching TV and didn't do any studies. You'll be OK!

:)) lol

If you use a small power to open a tap, a large volume of water would drain out. Clear water example for gain OR amplification.

the current is amplified because electrons are flowing from both the batteries and not just one battery

@@blusky3591 i didn't see any batteries, but 2 diodes

@@endurofan9854 I must be referring to 2 duracell batteries you can see in 5:10 . I might be wrong so if you feel like correcting me, please do.

watch it 5 more times

not technically current, electron flow. Current is more of an abstract concept (now that we know its actually electrons flowing instead)

are you being sarcastice? please answer, I'm learning about this stuff.

no sarcasism. conventional flow is an old way(1880's) of labeling current flow when Benjamin Franklin assigned electrons flowing from positive to negitive...he just through lables on it....we found out later that that electrons move from a neg charged region to a possitive charged region. neg to pos. but before we knew this we labled our schematics with arrows in symbols thinking pos to neg. this was the conventional way of looking at it....and is now called conventional current flow....but the truth is that current is only the flow of electrons (sometimes in special setups electrons and ions can move to pos but this is rare) so we called it electron current flow. hope this helps

ken ezzell yes it helped. thank you. I originally assumed conventional current meant from negative to positive.

ken ezzell so hold on. Diodes are actually backwards? Been doing electronic stuff for a few months now I'm all fucked up.

This video is excellent

Stalin!

Yep. Lots of audio gear uses MOSFETS.
