PCB Prototyping Essentials: Choosing Between BJT and MOSFET for Your Circuit Design
When designing a PCB prototype, one of the most critical decisions you’ll make is choosing the right type of transistor. Both BJTs (Bipolar Junction Transistors) and MOSFETs (Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors) are widely used for amplification and switching, but they have distinct characteristics that affect circuit performance, efficiency, and complexity. This article explores the key differences…
