    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.
