Slide 3 - Introduction to BJT Basics
- Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT): A three-terminal device (Emitter, Base, Collector).
- Operates as either an amplifier or a switch based on bias conditions.
- Key mechanism: Small current at the Base terminal controls larger current between Collector and Emitter.
- Modes of Operation: Active (Amplification), Cut-off (OFF), and Saturation (ON).
- Key parameters: Beta (current gain) and Alpha (common-base current gain).

Slide 4 - Overview of Configurations
- The three configurations depend on which terminal is 'common' to both input and output circuits.
- Common Emitter (CE): Emitter is common. Most widely used for voltage amplification.
- Common Base (CB): Base is common. High frequency applications, low input impedance.
- Common Collector (CC): Collector is common. Also known as Emitter Follower. High input impedance, used for impedance matching.
