Shop for Semiconductor Devices at Darrah Electric
Made of a material, typically composed of silicon, which conducts electricity, semiconductors can be found in hundreds of thousands of electronic products. An essential component of the electronics industry, power electronics, consumer electronics and much more, the semiconductor industry is booming. As a leading distributor and supplier of semiconductors/devices, Darrah Electric is at the forefront of this growing marketplace to ensure that your industry and business can utilize the incredible technology of semiconductors.
Types of Semiconductors
Broadly speaking, there are two types of semiconductors: p-types and n-types. A p-type semiconductor has a positive electric charge while an n-type semiconductor has a negative electric charge. When a p-type and n-type semiconductor are combined, the connection point is known as the p-n junction. The number and configurations of p-n junctions produce two specific types of semiconductors called diodes and transistors.
Semiconductor Diodes
A semiconductor diode is a single p-n junction and a two-terminal device. In most applications, you will find semiconductor diodes like:
- IMPATT diodes
- Laser diodes
- Light-emitting diodes (LED)
Semiconductor Transistors
A semiconductor transistor is two p-n junctions and a three-terminal device. Common semiconductor transistors include:
- Bipolar junction transistor (BJT)
- Field-effect transistor (FET)
- Metal-oxide-semiconductor FET (MOSFET)
