Transistors - Basic Operation - Simply Put

I try what's been tried a million times: To explain transistors!

[MlokKarel]

You are one of the very few people, who actually knows how to explain something complex and difficult, clinging to the bare bone basics for it to still make sense while not overwhelming with new information.

I believe your concept of explaining - first let's talk about what it does and how you can use it, then we can dig deeper into the theory and advanced use cases - is how teaching should be done in general. Like foreign languages - the classical method is trying to force vocabulary and grammar into the students, lesson after lesson, leaving little room for conversation and text comprehension - ignoring the fact that this gets you nowhere near to what usually is the goal of learning languages - to be actually able to communicate with foreigners, to be able to get around by yourself while abroad etc...
It's mind boggling, yet very few schools and teachers make any effort to change the dysfunctional way of teaching.

Ok, rant over - I just wanted to thank you and compliment you on your superb teaching skill :)

This is, without doubt, the best explanation I've seen. I "sort of" knew how they worked, but all the pennies dropped while watching this. I totally get it now. Thank you 🖤 (bookmarked to revisit when I inevitably forget!)

WHY DO YOU ONLY HAVE 893 VIEWS....
I WAS SUPPOSED TO LEARN ALL OF THIS THEORY IN COLLEGE BUT YOU'RE EXPLANING EVERYTHING WAY BETTER THAN ANY OF MY GRADUATE LEVEL PROF'S TAUGHT ME.

FINALLY, someone explains this in a way I can understand. Thanks!

You explained it super-fast, but I was able to keep up. 🙂

This is one of the BEST tutorials I ever seen. You make other people life easier, as you have a talent to translate science to be understandable. KUDOS TO YOU !!

I'm really glad youtube algorithm has put this video high in the search ranking even though it's not one of the most viewed on the subject. Absolutely fantastic explanation! You're supremely skilled at understanding the shenanigans people go through while learning this stuff and have a simple way of navigating around them. It truly is simply put, I applaud you and thank you kind sir!

That’s by far the best explanation of a transistor that I have ever heard. I have an EE degree and wish that my professors would have broken it down so simply.

[debugsec]

I would pay for your explanations, best explanations for these types of things. Thank you.

[tiagomello]

I really like the explanation! One of the best ways I have ever had. The video editing cuts distracts me a little bit. But I think I can live with that.

"Anything I can say is just gonna make it worse"
This is true wisdom

You my friend are a life saver, I don't know how you explain it so easily but I dig it!! Thank you I am definitely subscribing so I can refer to all of your videos

[csbluechip]

Suddenly it all makes so much more sense!. Thanks :)

[sizeablemind]

Wow again, second video and it's just what I need.
I don't need all the theory at first, I want an "operational" understanding so as to build circuits and have fun.
That's the path you chose to take and take us through and it's ruthlessly logical to do so, rather than waiting for an hypothetic aha moment after suffering with theory.
All schools should teach this way!!

[БидонКадыкавич-хц]

Its always these rare less than 5k views videos that really make you understand the subject

[Flyrip]

So incredibly good explanation. Your videos are Simply Awesome :) Don't know how many transistor videos I have watched and maybe I am just dense but finally I get it 😁 Loads of thanks 👍

[sigitwijanarko]

Thank you very much. I understand BJT transistors now, after many years....

[KH-ftut]

Me: I got an exam next week, could you teach me an entire semester of electronics by then?
Simply Put: Hold my beer.

I Love this guy :D

[Danbotics]

Really loving your videos - I’m an older guy doing an electrical engineering degree (later in life than most!) and your explanations just WORK for my brain to absorb. Thank you man.

[monh]

Thank you for simplifying the topic. Hope you channel grow . you deserve millions of subscribers.

Superb explanation... everything is there
