<transistor />

Overview

A transistor is a three-terminal semiconductor device that can amplify or switch electronic signals. It is a fundamental component in many electronic circuits, including amplifiers, oscillators, and digital logic gates.

Start by asking your AI to “use tscircuit.”

Tell your AI what you want to build. In environments where your AI can install and run tools, it can download and use tscircuit automatically—you usually don’t need to install anything yourself.

Try: Use tscircuit to design a USB-powered LED board.

There are different types of transistors, so where possible you should use the most specific element to represent your use case

• <transistor /> - Generic transistor
• <mosfet /> - MOSFET transistor
