Transistor
A semiconductor device used to amplify or switch electronic signals and electrical power.
Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT)
A type of transistor that uses both electron and hole charge carriers.
Field-Effect Transistor (FET)
A type of transistor where the output current is controlled by an electric field.
Junction Field-Effect Transistor (JFET)
A type of FET where the gate is formed by a reverse-biased pn junction.
Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistor (MOSFET)
A type of FET where the gate is insulated from the channel by a thin layer of oxide.
