I bet, your teacher once told you a 20 minute story about his life to try and relate to the class, and you spent the rest of this "entire semester" messing around, ignoring the teacher and just generally being a useless learner. So to save yourself the feeling of regret, you've concocted this "glory days" story to make yourself feel better. It's the same with all of these "I wish my teacher in school was like this guy" comments on every single science influencer video out there.

that's what happens when u are more of a visual learner, college professors often rely too much on maths and text, and not show diagrams too much to help students visualize things, and they can be hard to follow I still remember my class on Multi Variable Calculus where my friends struggled so hard to visualize the functions and the partial derivatives, when a a simple graph plotted using a computer would have fixed that problem easily.

The simplified transistor schematics makes more sense if you view the two back to back diodes as optically coupled LEDs / photo-diodes. So every every electron that crosses the Base-Emitter diode emits a photon. These photons travel over to the Base-Emitter diode to get absorbed and each allow one electron to cross its PN-junction as reverse current. If you take this model, then the current amplification factor of the transistor inversely depends on the percentage of photons that get lost during the process (about 0.5% for a typical hfe of 200).

Currently in a coarse largely focused on MOSFETs and it was just lovely learning that the BJT's equivalent of a MOSFET's saturation region is called it's active region. Then to double down on the confusion, they called the linear/triode region of a MOSFET a BJT's saturation region. Ahhh I love electrical engineering.

This video is loaded with information, but it was about the most useful video on the topic I have ever seen

I know enough about Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistors, but this video was pretty interesting and full of explaination about unclear parts of the oldskool transistor

Great video! It reminds me of my education as an electronics tech in the Marine Corps, where we were taught that transistors were "magic rocks". It was good enough for what we needed to know. In college, a teacher taught us "approximate to graduate". In other words, Vbe is 0.65V usually, use nominal beta, etc. i.e. keep sight of the big picture, and not the little details. Thanks again!

Im studying electrical engineering. I've been struggling in my Electronic Devices class. ElectroBOOM has been super helpful at answering questions i missed in the reading

Thank you very much mehdi.... In my years during electrical engineering, I never had any interest in Analog Electronics... I was more of a power systems guy.... I always wanted to go in depth in learning Analog Electronics, but haven't had the interest.. Thank you for such a brilliant series ... Will follow this series however complex it might get

Omg I have no idea if you saw my comments, but the fact that I asked for a video about transistors a few weeks ago and now it's here, is amazing thank you very much!

I am a master's degree student at Technical University of Cluj and this explanations are really really good as a base to better understand transistors. I am amazed how you evaded all the theory and explained really plain and simple a difficult topic. I'm glad I subscribed to you, thank you Electroboom :D

I learned more about BJTs in this one video than I did in the entire semester of electrical engineering classes I was supposed to be learning about them in.

I love these electroboom videos, educational (I have a story about this that I will explain in a second) and funny at the same time. One thing he didn't mention though is that a transistor can also be used as a solid-state relay. OK, back to the educational part. My wife and I had an idea a few years ago for a device we want to try to invent, and for the longest time we couldn't figure out how to do part of it. We finally figured it out from watching an electroboom video, and while I can't say what our device is (I don't want anyone to develop the idea before me), I can say that it pertains to his video about peltier modules.
