Transistor
A Transistor is an electronic device that helps manipulate the electrical power. It can amplify the current or act
as a switch. It is also mainly made by semiconductor materials such as silicon and germanium. The materials are
chosen as such because they can undergo the process of doping. doping is the manipulation of atoms to
increase conductivity.

Applications of Transistors
Computer/Phone Processors
- Computer and phone processors are made up of billions of nano sized transistors known
as mosfets. These transistors allow data to be processed significantly fast and possibly
faster.
Fire Detection&Alarm
- Since a Transistor can also act as a switch we can modify a transistor to turn on or off
depending on it’s surrounding temperature in order for it to turn on the alarm and alert
that a fire has happened.
Electrical/ Signal Amplification

- Transistors are mainly composed of semiconductor materials such as silicon this makes
them great materials to amplify an electric current or signal.
