Substitution Theorem

It states that in a linear network any passive element can be equivalently substitute by ideal voltage source or ideal current source provided to all other branch currents and voltages doesn't change which can be possible  when the substituted element and original element absorb the same power.


Substitution Theorem is the replacement of one element with another equivalent element. In a network, if any element is substituted or replaced by a voltage or current source whose voltage and current across or through that element will remain unchanged as the previous network.

BJT (bipolar junction transistor)

A bipolar junction transistor is a three terminal semiconductor current controlled device with two P-N junctions. The three terminals are emitter(E), base(B) and collector(C). the emitter junction is heavily doped, base is less doped and made very thin and collector terminal is moderately doped. Collector has grater size than emitter and base terminal is thinner than both. (The thinner the base, the stronger the E-C electric field, and the larger the impact of a small current injected into the base. Explained clearly in active mode operation below) emitter terminal is moderate in size. A BJT has two types of transistors: NPN transistor PNP transistor NPN transistor : In an NPN transistor a p-type material is sandwiched between two n-type materials.

voltage

Voltage, is is the difference in potential between two points  in an electric field. also called electromotive force. voltage is the   pressure from an electrical circuit’s power source that pushes charged electrons (current).           grater the voltage grater the flow of electric current. Voltage is symbolized by   V or E . The standard unit is the volt. One volt will drive one columb  (6.24 x 10 18 ) charge.such as electronics through a resistance of one ohm. Voltage can be direct or alternating. A direct voltage maintains the same polarity. In an alternating voltage, the polarity reverses direction periodically. The number of complete cycles per second is the frequency which is measured in hertz.

Diode

Frederick Guthrie invented the diode in 1873, but did not put it into practical use. Thomas Edison independently developed it in 1880, then used it in his 1883 patent of the incandescent light bulb. John Ambrose Fleming received the first patent on the diode itself in 1904. A Diode is a two terminal active component that conducts primarily in one direction. Diodes are one of the simplest, but most useful of all semiconductor devices. Many types of diode are used for a wide range of applications. Rectifier diodes are a vital component in power supplies where they are used to convert AC mains (line) voltage to DC. Zener diodes are used for voltage stabilization, preventing unwanted variations in DC supplies within a circuit. Signal diodes are used to obtain the audio and video signals from transmitted radio frequency signals (demodulation) and can also be used to shape and modify AC signal waveforms (clipping, limiting and DC restoration). Diodes are also built into many digital integra...
