Introduction of NPN Signal Transistor-MMBT3904

In order to prevent us from falling into the irritating description of the transistor, in the last issue, we specially selected RECOM Power's REC15E-Z, which tells about its characteristics and simple details. But the transistor is too important in the electronics industry, tens of thousands The electronic components are all related to him, so we can't ignore it. There are still a lot of things we need to know. In this issue, I chose NPN Signal Transistor-MMBT3904, and we will introduce some knowledge about it. Here I made a suggestion. After understanding MMBT3904, we can compare the electronic components introduced in the previous issues. I believe that you will get a different understanding.

Before reading, we need to understand:

What is an NPN transistor?

NPN is one of the two types of bipolar transistors, consisting of a layer of P-doped semiconductor (the "base") between two N-doped layers. A small current entering the base is amplified to produce a large collector and emitter current.

How do NPN transistors work?

The NPN transistor is designed to pass electrons from the emitter to the collector (so conventional current flows from collector to emitter). The emitter “emits” electrons into the base, which controls the number of electrons the emitter emits.  The transistor is kind of like an electron valve.

Description from a third party about BT3904.

BT3904 is a NPN transistor hence the collector and emitter will be left open (Reverse biased) when the base pin is held at ground and will be closed (Forward biased) when a signal is provided to base pin. BT3904 has a maximum gain value of 300; this value determines the amplification capacity of the transistor. The maximum amount of current that could flow through the Collector pin is 200mA, hence we cannot connect loads that consume more than 200mA using this transistor. To bias a transistor we have to supply current to base pin, this current (IB) should be limited to 5mA.

When this transistor is fully biased then it can allow a maximum of 200mA to flow across the collector and emitter. This stage is called Saturation Region and the typical voltage allowed across the Collector-Emitter (V­CE) or Collector-Base (VCB) could be 40V and 60V respectively. When base current is removed the transistor becomes fully off, this stage is called as the Cut-off Region and the Base Emitter voltage could be around 600 mV.
