Manufacturing companies, particularly those that mass-produce electronic circuits, work pretty much around bipolar junction transistors, like PNP and NPN. However, choosing between these two BJTs can ...

The ISL73096EH is a radiation hardened ultra high frequency NPN/PNP transistor array. It contains three NPN transistors and two PNP transistors on a common substrate. The device covers all of the ...

In the early days, PNP bipolar transistors were common, but the bulk of circuits you see today use NPN transistors. As [Aaron Danner] points out, many people think PNP transistors are “backward” but ...

Zetex Semiconductors has introduced a series of miniature NPN and PNP transistors for MOSFET gate driving in latest generation power supplies. ZXTN and ZXTP transistors The first bipolars to be ...

In multiple-output power supplies in which a single supply powers circuitry of vastly different current draws, two perplexing steps are sensing the current that each output draws and deactivating the ...

Matching a sensor interface with a programmable logic converter or controller hardware that can accept only one type of input—npn or pnp—can be difficult. The last-stage modification circuit described ...
