BJT full form

What is the full form of BJT?


Answer :

  • Bipolar Junction Transistor

What does BJT mean?


BJT was invented by William Shockley at Bell Laboratories in 1948.

BJT is a type of transistor that uses both electron and hole charge carriers.  

BJT uses two junctions between two semiconductor types such as n-type and p-type. There are two types of PNP and NPN. 

The basic function of BJT is to amplify current and available both alone or packaged into integrated circuits ( IC ). 

BJT is widely used in amplifiers for a large amount of everyday electronic equipment.
