@@selva81652 well I guess you can say that the electrons can't unsee the holes they passed through, they won't fill ALL the holes in the area, but they'll have to fill some
The explanations are really good, but I can not concentrate with the constant music and the robot voice. After a few minutes it got so uncomfortable i had to close it. Sorry.
@@electrical4you It is highly annoying. Perhaps of using a computer generated voice, have a real person instead. Also, the flashing hand is also annoying. Just make the marks without the hand and the pen.

Best explanation yet, something you can remember. Of course you can take courses in device physics or solid state physics and get lost in equations. Don’t mind the background music, the repeating motif actually helps you focus. Some people complained about the computer voice, but a strong English accent would be much more distracting. Very nice and thoughtful presentation.
Hi, I have a question and I am not sure if it is okay to ask here. I have checked with other websites and I couldn't find a good answer. At 6:09, why can't free electrons cross the vBE junction for ANY vCE voltage? Since vCE will pass through the vBE junction, isn't it that free electrons are able to cross as long as vCE is more than 0.7V?
Thanks for posting this great video. The volume of the music is loud but not enough to totally cover the voice. Some echo and clipping of the voice are in the key points to make difficult following the explanation, well done, but the masterpice is the popping box covering the final formula. I suggest to flash the video or alternatively shake the draw.
Why is V_be fixed and only V_cb increases at 5:30 ? Why could the external voltage not overcome the V_be and cause flow of electrons into the base even without the second voltage applied between base and emitter?
Super Great Explanation! The electrons can overcome the reverse biased BC junction because the B region is very thin and lightly doped, thus barely holding its electrons, leading to a lower breakdown voltage. Thanks!
It's not kinetic energy of the electrons in the base that enables them to cross Vcb at all. The reason they cross is because they are minority charge carriers and they don't see a barrier. For electrons Vcb is down hill. So, the reverse biased current of minority charge carriers (electrons) across Vcb is large due to the large number of them. The reason the base is lightly doped is because only the electrons that don't combine with holes are free minority charge carriers. I think the reason the base is narrow is so that the concentration of electrons in the base is large. If the base were thick the electrons would fall down through the base instead of populating the base.
9.02 is a very important point. Why do you need a background music?. Schools dont produce that. Voice modulation need to be sharp and striking the mind.
So a transistor is always working in a forward bias(emitter+base) and reverse bias(collector+base) ? If yes? Then the Base current is due to Forward bias and Collector current is due to reverse bias? Please do let me know if i am wrong?
Howdy. Really nice. Now I almost understand the current gain mechanism. The key words seem to be heavily doped emitter and lightly doped base. This seems to produce a swarm of free electrons in the base, coming from the emitter, when there is a base current present. Regards.
I have doubts:-. We got amplified current output at collector(collector current is more than base n emitter current) ...but u said i(emitter)=i(base)+i(collector). That means emitter current is larger than collector||||||||||. How?
Yes, the emitter current is the sum of both currents (base [Ic/B] and the collector current Ic). However, by increasing a low base current you also increase the collector current: current amplification. The amplification here is with regards to the base current which is clearly much smaller than the collector current (by a factor of B).
Well even though at the beginning it felt like a big waste f time ( for transistor part ), I mean I didn't get the specific explanation I was seeking, I still got of this video with a whole new idea and picture for the transistor's function, I really thank you, I've never thought of the transistor in this way before. Keep up the good work, and I apologise if my comment seemed rude.
I am just wondering about the equation at 5:43. Shouldn't it be "Vce= - Vcb + Vbe ? I would think, due to the different polarity's, Vcb has to be negative? I also found this negative Vbc on other webpages as well, for the same npn-transistor. Other than that it's a great video. thank you! Regards!
So the idea is that; there are more free electrons in the emitter purposely doped into that region and that will contribute electrons to the collector when it has it's own Volt source... and that is the (Beta), the Gain of the transistor. Pretty cool Beans although amplification of a signal would be ideal.
Howdy. This is my theory only. I posted this comment in another transistor clip. Comments are welcome. "I understand that the base current provides a "bridge" for the emitter electrons to jump into the base. I didn't understand the current gain mechanism earlier. Now I believe I do. My earlier thinking was that once the emitter-base depletion voltage is exceeded the collector current should simply "avalanche" through. In the following I apply quantum physics. The emitter-base turn-on voltage is not a sharp knee. Base current begin to flow at about 0,63V. The depletion zone has not disappeared completely at 0,63V. Only few electrons are energized enough by random quantum mechanics to jump / tunnel the emitter-base residual depletion zone into the base. When we drive more base current the emitter-base voltage rises to 0,7V. The depletion zone is saturated and has therefore disappeared. All free emitter electron can tunnel straight to the base and forward to the collector. So in my mind. The BJT is actually voltage controlled. When the base-emitter voltage varies between about 0.63 - 0,7V the residual depletion zone varies in "thickness / density" allowing more or less electrons to tunnel through. Finally it is worth observing that one cannot have a base-emitter voltage without also having a base current." Regards.
Why no current can flow for the potential applied between collector and emitter? Is it not the same as applying voltage between emitter and base other than Vce has to overcome two potential barriers.... if Vce is large enough it should be able to overcome the two depletion region barrier and electrons should flow from emitter to collector...
Sirs, Great presentation, but the banjo in the background is unnecessary and HIGHLY distracting. When unfamiliar information is presented having a distracting background noise added is definitely a negative.
in reality, there is nothing called 'holes' exist, holes are theories to understand, its always the electrons moves to places where there are less electrons to get balanced. so when an electron is removed, its theoretically called a hole, so holes cannot move in reality. only the electrons moves.
Why would anyone want a computer to narrate their video? Terrible. I'm glad I only have twenty years or so left to live because things are getting dumber and dumber.
Thank you for the feedback fododude. We initially didn't like how our own voice sounded, so we used a robotic voice. Since getting all this feedback that the voice quality is poor - we will use a human voice in future 🙂 p.s. I hope you live for a lot longer than another 20 years

I have a small doubt, why electrons in base combine with hole and constitute base current instead of directly going on to positive terminal in base

@7:40 - the electrons continue to move across the base due to their kinetic energy?
When you increase voltage across BE you current also increases. Right? Then how come current is still the same at 8:15
Why is V_be fixed and only V_cb increases at 5:30 ? Why could the external voltage not overcome the V_be and cause flow of electrons into the base even without the second voltage applied between base and emitter?
The “music” and the robot voice render this video unwatchable.
yes its really terrible
True
Yes
thinking same thing ..you just wrote it up for me ..thanks. Could have been ok ...stuffed it up unfortunately.

bonajab its not the kinetic energy... but they need some energy to cross the barrier
THANKS FOR THE CORRECTION
:-)
that the point u got the concept right thanks
Awesome ANIMATIONS........all doubts are cleared.......thank u
This is a beautiful video to understand easily.
Sir could you say , which software did you used to make this video?
Good Explanation - one request would be make background music very low . Thanks
7.36 It is precisely at this point that 99% of the videos do not explain properly. A reverse polarized junction miraculously conducts electricity.
which application u used for making this video
9.02 is a very important point. Why do you need a background music?. Schools dont produce that. Voice modulation need to be sharp and striking the mind.
Thank you for the feedback Selvam. I completely agree - less music in future videos 🙂
So a transistor is always working in a forward bias(emitter+base) and reverse bias(collector+base) ? If yes? Then the Base current is due to Forward bias and Collector current is due to reverse bias? Please do let me know if i am wrong?
