Activity #4

Vacuum Tubes:

1. What is a vacuum Tube Diode?

Answer: A Vacuum tube diode is a two electrode vacuum tube as its name shows DI for two ODE for
electrodes. The two electrodes are cathode and anode (plate).

2. Draw the Schematic Symbol of Vacuum Tube Diode. (Label the parts and terminals)

3. What is a Vacuum Tube Triode?

Answer: A triode is an electronic amplifying vacuum tube (or valve in British English) consisting of three
electrodes inside an evacuated glass envelope: a heated filament or cathode, a grid, and a plate (anode)

4. Draw the Schematic Symbol of Triode Tube. (Label the parts and terminals)

5. What is the direction of flow of electrons inside a vacuum tube diode and vacuum tube triode?

Transistors:
1. What is a transistor?

Answer: A transistor is a miniature semiconductor that regulates or controls current or voltage flow in
addition amplifying and generating these electrical signals and acting as a switch/gate for them.
Typically, transistors consist of three layers, or terminals, of a semiconductor material, each of which
can carry a current.

2. Draw the Schematic Symbol of PNP and NPN-type transistor. (Label the terminals)

3. How the electrons flow in a PNP transistor?What is the direction of flow of electrons?

4. How the electrons flow in an NPN transistor, what is its direction of flow?

Answer: The NPN transistor is designed to pass electrons from the emitter to the collector (so
conventional current flows from collector to emitter). The emitter "emits" electrons into the base, which
controls the number of electrons the emitter emits.
