Electronic connectors are complex devices that join electronic circuits and are integral to assembling, installing, and supplying power to electronic devices. As such, connectors are a critical component found in every type of electronic equipment used in industrial machinery, consumer electronics, communications, and appliances. While these devices oftentimes go overlooked, they are a major part of making an electronic product functional and complete.

Transistors, originally known as “transit resistors” and “transfer resistors,” are components that have revolutionized the electronic world since their invention. As of the present, transistors serve as a staple of electronic circuitry, so much so that it is fairly unfathomable to have a PCB that is devoid of such elements. In this blog, we will discuss the characteristics, functionality, types, and applications of transistors, allowing you to better understand how the component has forever changed electronic design and manufacturing.
