Over 55 years ago (when I was 10) I was given a birthday present of a simple electronics kit. Several things could be made from it... from buzzers to flashing lights, to even a simple SW radio. While I had no idea at the time what was happening (in terms of the Physics), and needed only to follow very clear instructions as to how to wire the components, the fact that "joining all these bits" in different ways resulted in things with very different properties was very exciting. Now - over half a century later - I discover this remarkable video that beautifully explains the inner workings! Excellent material.

A conventional current is true because the current isn't just flow of electrons. In electrical current, all charged particles move. Including positive. Positively charged particles flow in one direction, negatively charged - in opposite.

This is by far the best explanation of basic transistors that I have ever watched! And I’ve watched many many of them. I used to work in a semiconductor physics lab, and you have explained it better than the professor did, in clearer and more easily assimilated terms. This kind of stuff is really needed by many people. Kudos to you 👍

In 1966 I was a Marine stationed at Camp LeJeune in North Carolina. My Company Commander sent me to a 4 week course on transistors. About 99% of the transceiver equipment in the Corps at that time used tubes. I graduated first in my class and was rewarded by my Commander by a promotion to Corporal. Imagine sitting in a class for 7 hours a day for 4 weeks just learning about transistors. We went into detailed theory and saw movies on the process of manufacturing all forms of transistors; plus we did lots of lab work where we built transistor circuits and learned how to troubleshoot them. I'm 75 now but still remember much of what I learned in that course. After I left the Corps in 1968 I became an Electrical Engineer and worked mostly with communications receivers and sonar until 2012 when I retired. I had a great career and now I mostly goof off on the 5 country acres my wife, 4 cats, and I live on. Cheers to all.

It is first very good explanation of transistor work in necessary details ( the base voltage 0.5V when transistor is still closed and the 0.8V and greater when transistor is opened is important information, transistor does not get opened in range from 0 - 0.5V). Any person who wants to do anything with transistor should watch it.

This is so well explained that it further cements the fact that your professor can make your academic ambitions a miserable endeavor if they are unable to explain concepts in simple ways

Thank you for this wonderful explanation of transistor operation! This is perhaps the finest, most in-depth, yet concise and understandable explanation I have ever seen! Well done!

Man, these tutorials are so meaty, my brain hurts watching them. But, now that I'm hooked on working with electronic components, I'm glad someone out there is tackling this arcane subject matter, dumbing it down for the masses, and presenting it to we technically challenged folks, hopefully so we can grasp its fundamentals. Thanks for that.

Side note about conventional vs electron flow (which im sure is covered in the battery video, but i like explaining it, so here I go...) Imagine a pipe that contains a row of marbles. In order for a marble to move there must be a space for it to move into. To create a space for a marble to move into, ie a hole, you can remove one marble from the end and the rest of the marbles will shift forward one marble space. If you slow this down as you remove one marble from the end the next marble will shift into its position which now opens a space behind it for the next marble shift into, and so on down the line. As the marbles, ie electrons, shift in one direction the wave front of their motion, ie current, moves in the other. Moving electrons give rise to electrical current. Ergo to have current in one direction electron marbles move in the other. Grasping that concept was incredibly helpful to understanding more about how electricity and electronics work. Also this videos visuals of the doped regions of a transistor and how they function are miles above any other explanation I have ever seen. And I'm no spring chicken. Thumbs up.

the water pipe example was really a genius way to explain the idea which make me understand the working of transistor more clearly.

Thank you for this clear presentation. I can see the relation to how this works with the body & the comparisons to the cells within us and the energy field.

Thank you for explaining the source of confusion related to electron flow in an electrical circuit: negative to positive; while conventional terminology will show a flow from positive to negative. I think the confusion is further exacerbated by the failure to distinguish between potential (voltage) and electron flow. I think of the positive side as a magnet attracting the electrons. The magnetic pull is in one direction, the electron flow in the other.

Yes, but a diode makes that theory false. Electrons cannot flow negative to positive through the diode.

I’ll spread love for my professor who did explain these well, but it was a materials class not electronics (focused on material properties and electron holes), so knowing the full picture makes it all the more better.

Love your videos because of the animations. They bring to life the concepts for many of my students. How about creating a Transistors 2 video that speaks on MOSFETs as well. Since these are ones that seem to be popular in designs. Thanks.

Absolutely fantastic video. Your graphics mated with your explanation made this easy to understand and memorable. It definitely will not be a forgotten lesson, and now I feel confident enough to instruct others when asked about it. Great work! I hope to find more of your videos explaining how these marvelous components operate. Also, I know that this video is older, but thank you for keeping it online.

You explain both transistor and how electricity works, and also clarify that electrons flows from the negative to the positive, I guess that's why scientist called it "subatomic particle with a negative charge". You really blow my mind.
