Bipolar Junction Transistor • Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT)
consists of three “sandwiched” semiconductor layers
• The three layers are connected to collector (C), emitter (E), and base (B) pins
• Current supplied to the base controls the amount of current that flows through the collector and emitter – “current controlled device”

• It is observed that most diffusing electrons will reach boundary of collector-base depletion region.
• Because collector is more positive than base, these electrons are swept into collector.
• collector current (iC) is approximately equal to diffusion current.
• iC = Idiffusion
• Magnitude of iC is independent of vCB. • As long as collector is positive, with respect to
base.

The Base Current • base current (iB) – composed of two components:
• ib1 – due to holes injected from base region into emitter. • ib2 – due to holes that have to be supplied by external
circuit to replace those recombined.
• common-emitter current gain (β.) – is influenced by two factors:
• width of base region (W) • relative doping of base emitter regions (NA/ND)
• High Value of β • thin base (small W in nano-meters) • lightly doped base / heavily doped emitter

• Previously, small reverse current was ignored. • This is carried by thermally-generated minority carriers.
• However, it does deserve to be addressed. • The collector-base junction current (ICBO) is normally in the nano-
ampere range. • Many times higher than its theoretically-predicted value.

Structure of Actual Transistors
• More realistic BJT cross-section. • Collector virtually surrounds entire emitter region.
• This makes it difficult for electrons injected into base to escape collection. • Device is not symmetrical.
• As such, emitter and collector cannot be interchanged. • Device is uni-directional.

Dependence of iC on Collector Voltage – The Early Effect
• When operated in active region, practical BJT’s show some dependence of collector current on collector voltage.
• As such, iC-vCE characteristic is not “straight”.
VA - Early Voltage (50 – 100 V)

Early Effect
• Early effect or base width modulation: is the variation in the width of the base due to a variation in the applied base-to-collector voltage.
• For example a greater reverse bias across the collector- base junction increases the collector-base depletion width.
![Page 27: Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT)eeeforum.weebly.com/uploads/1/0/2/5/10254481/lecslide_bjt1.pdf · Common-base (CB) Mode In this mode, the base terminal is common to both the input](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022040218/5e07376bbbb1327f0e4415b5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Consequences of Early Effect • Reverse saturation current increases, increasing the collector
current. • Less chance for recombination in the base. • Charge gradient is increased and hence the minority carriers
injected inside the emitter will increase. • For extremely large voltages, base width = 0 , causing voltage
breakdown in transistor resulting in punchthrough.
