Chapter 5 - Transistors
Chapter Overview
This chapter introduces
the transistor. Transistors are solid-state devices
similar in some ways to the diodes you have studied.
Transistors are more complex and can be used in many
more ways.
The most important feature
of transistors is their ability to amplify signals.
Amplification can make a weak signal strong enough to
be useful in an electronic application. For example,
an audio amplifier can be used to supply a strong signal
to a loudspeaker.
