Study Notes
Thermistors
- Thermistors are temperature-sensitive resistors used for temperature measurements.
- Thermistors are known for their accuracy and affordability.
- The term "thermistor" is derived from "thermally sensitive resistors."
Transistor Classification
- Transistors are classified into two main types: Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJTs) and Field-effect Transistors (FETs).
- BJTs are further divided into NPN and PNP types.
- FETs are categorized into Junction FETs (JFETs) and Metal Oxide Semiconductor FETs (MOSFETs).
- JFETs can operate in depletion mode, with both N-channel and P-channel configurations.
- MOSFETs can function in both depletion and enhancement modes, with both N-channel and P-channel versions.
