2. Open collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_collector

   Open emitter output exposes the emitter as the output. [2] For an NPN open emitter output, the collector is connected to the positive voltage rail, so the emitter outputs a high voltage when the transistor is on and is hi-Z when off. For a PNP open emitter output, the collector is connected to the low voltage supply, so the emitter outputs a ...

3. Wired logic connection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wired_logic_connection

   Open-emitter buffers connected as wired OR. See also: Diode logic § Active-high OR logic gate. The wired OR connection electrically performs the Boolean logic operation of an OR gate using open emitter or similar inputs (which can be identified by the ⎏ symbol in schematics) connected to a shared output with a pull-down resistor. This gate ...

4. Common collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_collector

   In this circuit, the base terminal of the transistor serves as the input, the emitter is the output, and the collector is common to both (for example, it may be tied to ground reference or a power supply rail), hence its name.

5. Common emitter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_emitter

   The common-emitter circuit is the most widely used of junction transistor amplifiers. As compared with the common-base connection, it has higher input impedance and lower output impedance. A single power supply is easily used for biasing. In addition, higher voltage and power gains are usually obtained for common-emitter (CE) operation.

6. Bipolar transistor biasing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_transistor_biasing

   Emitter bias. When a split supply (dual power supply) is available, this biasing circuit is the most effective. It provides zero bias voltage at the emitter or collector for load. [clarification needed] The negative supply V ee is used to forward-bias the emitter junction through R e. The positive supply V cc is used to reverse-bias the ...

7. Emitter-coupled logic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emitter-coupled_logic

   The value of the supply voltage is chosen so that sufficient current flows through the compensating diodes D1 and D2 and the voltage drop across the common emitter resistor R E is adequate. ECL circuits available on the open market usually operated with logic levels incompatible with other families.

8. Bootstrapping (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bootstrapping_(electronics)

   In switch-mode power supplies, the control circuits are powered from the output. To start the power supply, a leakage resistance can be used to trickle-charge the supply rail for the control circuit to start it oscillating. This approach is less costly and simpler than providing a separate linear power supply just to start the regulator circuit ...

9. Load line (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Load_line_(electronics)

   In a circuit with a three terminal device, such as a transistor, the current–voltage curve of the collector-emitter current depends on the base current. This is depicted on graphs by a series of (I C –V CE) curves at different base currents. A load line drawn on this graph shows how the base current will affect the operating point of the ...
