Introduction to electronics - 103 - nonlinear components

After this chapter you will know all the basics around semiconductor components like diodes, transistors (BJT as well as MOSFETs) and their effects…​ A nonlinear component is a device whose current–voltage relationship is not proportional . In other words, the current does not increase linearly with the applied voltage. Examples of nonlinear components include: * diodes (conduct current only in…
