Properties
- Voltage Rating: The PNP transistors have specified maximum voltage ratings.
- Current Rating: They are rated for the maximum collector current.
- Gain (Beta): The PNP transistors have a current gain often denoted as β.
- Power Dissipation: They have a maximum power dissipation rating.
- Frequency Response: The PNP transistors have a frequency response that depends on their construction.
- Temperature Range: Their performance is influenced by the temperature variations.
PNP Transistor
A PNP transistor is a type of bipolar junction transistor that consists of three layers of semiconductor material. It has a N-type layer sandwiched between the two P-type layers. PNP transistors are widely used in electronic circuits for amplification and signal processing.
