When it comes to semiconductor devices, BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor) and MOSFET (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor) are two of the most commonly used transistors. They both play a critical role in amplifying or switching electronic signals, but their underlying principles and applications are quite different. In this post, we’ll explore the fundamental differences between BJT and MOSFET to help you understand their unique features and decide which one to use in your project. What is a BJT? A Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) is a current-controlled device that has three terminals: Collector (C) , Base (B) , and Emitter (E) . BJTs can be either NPN or PNP types, depending on the arrangement of their semiconductor layers. BJTs work by using a small current at the base to control a larger current flowing between the collector and emitter. How BJT Works: Current-Controlled : In a BJT, the amount of current that flows from the collector to the emitter is cont...
