transistor circuit symbols

transistor circuit symbols

The circuit symbols for PNP and NPN transistor are shown below
pnp transistor symbol

PNP transistor

The arrow on the emitter lead pointing towards the base represents a PNP transistor. When the emitter-base junction of PNP transistor is forward biased, the direction of the conventional current flow is from emitter to base.

NPN transistor

npn transistor symbol
NPN transistor is represented by arrow on the emitter lead pointing away from the base. When the emitter base junction of a NPN transistor is forward biased, the direction of the conventional current is from base to emitter.
