Power Switching Transistor


Site for Eduqas/WJEC - Go to the AQA site.

Bipolar transistors are extremely cheap.

They are ideal for low power switching as long as the necessary base current is not going to be a problem.

Emitter Follower

Using an emitter follower greatly increases the input impedance. The output is used to drive a normal switch circuit as above.

Push Pull Amplifier

This circuit works but is rarely used. The similar MOSFET soultion is better in almost all respects.
