explain the functions of a transistor.. (not applications/uses).
 

Re: transistors

The function of a transistor is that it is a current controlled current source...
 

transistors

the main function of transistor as an amplifier , this be clear when you applied ac vlotage as an input of transistor .
To get this be clear pls refer to "Electronice Devices and Circuit Theory" for "Boylestad" in chapter 5.
 

Re: transistors

The transistor used as an amplifier( and in the CE configuration), allows to change the "resistance" in two points (Colector - Emitter), in function to a small signal injected in the Base. In a way, this changes in the signal are "copied" to the resistance variations, and then we get a large signal with the same variations than the small (The name Transistor comes from Tranfer Resistor, because of this effect)
