उत्तर

The circuit symbols of the two types of transistors:


Figure (a)


Figure (b)

The difference in the Emitter (E), the Base (b), and the Collector (C) are as follows:

  1. Emitter: It is a thick heavily doped layer. This supplies a large number of majority carriers for the current flow through the transistor
  2. Base: It is the thin, lightly doped central layer.
  3. Collector: It is a thick and moderately doped layer. Its area is larger than that of the emitter and the base. This layer collects a major portion of the majority of carriers supplied by the emitter. The collector also helps dissipation of any small amount of heat generated.
