In this Post you will know that how to use Transistor in DCACLab (both NPN and PNP).<\/p>\n

BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor) also Generally known as a transformer is an active electronic component used in either signal amplification or logic switches in signal processing.<\/p>\n

The transistor is a semiconductor device just like a PN Junction diode but unlike to that it has two PN junctions with different width of the depletion layers.<\/p>\n

How to use Transistors in DCACLAB and Customize their Properties<\/h2>\n

Steps to use PNP Transistor in Lab<\/h3>\n

Step 1 :<\/strong>\u00a0Navigate through the list of components and click on the PNP Transistor as shown in the below screen shot.<\/p>\n

  1. Current Gain or the Amplification factor of the transistor can be controlled from this section.<\/li>\n
  2. Select or deselect this checkbox in order to swap the position of emitter and collector. It Basically flips the transistor.<\/li>\n
  3. In this you can rotate the battery, you can rotate it from 0\u00b0 to 90\u00b0, 180\u00b0 and 270\u00b0.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
