The collector current develops as a result of this. The collector collects or attracts the holes that collect around the depletion region when they were exposed to negative polarity. Reverse bias is used to connect the collector-base region. As a result, only a few holes combine with electrons, and the rest of the holes are moved to the collector space charge layer.

The transistor's base is thin and does not have much doping. These electrons combined with the electrons when they moved into the N-type semiconductor material or base. The emitter current is made up of these holes. Working of PNP Transistor:īecause the emitter and base junctions are forward biased, the emitter pushes the holes in the base region. The junction between the collector and the base is referred to as a collector-base diode or a collector diode. Emitter-base diode or emitter diode is the name for the junction between the emitter and the base. The transistor is equivalent to two diodes because it has two PN-junctions. When it comes to collecting, the collector is always biased in the opposite direction. The collector is the section on the opposite side of the emitter that collects the charges. Due to the reverse bias of the base-collector junction, the collector circuit has a high resistance. The base-emitter junction is forward biased, allowing the emitter circuit to have low resistance. The base of a transistor is the section in the middle that forms the two PN-junctions between the emitter and the collector. When compared to the base, the emitter is always forward biased in order to supply a large number of charge carriers. The emitter's job is to provide charge carriers to the receiver. The transistor's three components are described in detail below. The base refers to the area in the middle. On one side, there is an emitter, and on the other, there is a collector. The forward biased emitter attracts electrons to the battery, causing current to flow from the emitter to the collector.ĭoped semiconductors are found in three sections of a transistor.

The emitter and base junctions are forward biased, while the collector and base junctions are reverse biased. The structure of a PNP transistor is depicted in the diagram below. In a PNP transistor, the current flows from the emitter to the collector, as shown by the inward arrow. In the diagram below, the symbol for a PNP transistor is depicted. The PNP Transistor is denoted by the letters PNP. The current that enters the base is amplified before it reaches the collector ends. The electrons in a PNP transistor are taken from the base terminal. In comparison to the emitter and collector, the base of a PNP transistor has always been negative. The voltage required by the transistor's emitter, collector and base is indicated by the letter of the PNP transistor. The current in a PNP transistor flows from the emitter to the collector. When a small current flow through the base of the PNP transistor, it turns on. The current inside the transistor is created by the movement of holes, and the current in the transistor's leads is created by the flow of electrons. The current in the hole is made up of the majority of carriers of the PNP transistors. The emitter-base diode is located on the left side of the diode, while the collector-base diode is located on the right side. Two crystal diodes are connected back-to-back in the PNP transistor. Both the emitter and collector currents were controlled by the small amount of base current. It is a device that is controlled by the current. The PNP transistor is a type of transistor in which one n-type material is doped with two p-type materials.
