Question

What is difference between PNP and NPN transistor?

Answer 1

The NPN transistor is designed to pass electrons from the emitter to the collector (so conventional current flows from collector to emitter). The emitter "emits" electrons into the base, which controls the number of electrons the emitter emits. ... The transistor is kind of like an electron valve.Jul 5, 2011

NPN transistors are mainly used in switching applications. Used in amplifying circuit applications. Used in the Darlington pair circuits to amplify weak signals. NPN transistors are used in the applications where there is a need to sink a current.Jan 23, 2015

PNP switches On by a low signal whereas NPN switches ON by a high signal. As we are aware that in PNP transistor, the P represents the polarity of the emitter terminal and N represents the polarity of the base terminal.
