  7. Diode V-I Characteristic • For ideal diode, current flows only one way • Real diode is close to ideal Ideal Diode Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  8. Transistor:A Combination of 2 Diodes Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  9. Diodes • We have noted previously that diodes act like a flapper valve Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  10. Transistor 2 P-N Junctions Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  11. MOSFET • Applying a gate voltage that exceeds the threshold voltage opens up the channel between the source and the drain • This is from an excellent collection of java applets at SUNY Buffalo http://jas.eng.buffalo.edu/ Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  14. Transistor Models • 2 Diodes • Current enters one terminal, is controlled by a second terminal and exits the third terminal. Thus, it acts like a valve. • Valves can be fully open, fully closed, or part way open Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  15. Transistor Models Continued • If the control signal changes with time, the total current passing through the transistor changes in the same way, but at a much higher amplitude Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  20. Models • There are usually many, many models for engineering devices and systems • Models vary in sophistication and complexity • You can use a model that you understand fully or that you are sure you are applying correctly • Use the simplest model that contains the information required Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor

  21. Models Continued • Circuit components usually require more complex models at • High frequency • High power • High or low temperature • High levels of radiation • Small size Intro to Engineering Electronics STOLEN FROM K. A. Connor
