THEORY OF BIASING COMMON EMITTER JUNCTION TRANSISTORS IN SWITCHING CIRCUITS
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4296505
The junction transistor can be made to approximate the mechanical contact switch much more closely than almost any other electronic component. A set of definitions of ON and OFF biasing requirements for the common emitter junction transistor operated in the switching mode are given. The Ebers-Moll equivalent circuit is used to study, in detail, what the transistor currents are in the OFF condition and what the transistor voltage drops are in the ON condition. The most important transistor parameters that need to be known before circuits can be designed which bias the transistor OFF and ON in accordance with the given definitions are summarized. (auth)
