Introduction:
Commonly
Classifications of Switches
Mechanical Switches
Momentary Switches
Latch Switches
Electrical Switches
Important Terms
Pole- The number of separate circuits the switch can control.
Throw- The number of different output connections each
switch pole can connect its input to.
SPST Switches
Single
pole input
Single pole output
A set of contacts inside the switch
opens or closes the circuit
The contacts carry the current load
of the circuit when closed
SPDT Switches
One
DPST Switches
DPDT Switches
Double throws because of two different circuits
Both armatures make contact at same time- Both
closed position
multiple wipers
that operate in unison
Contacts may carry current
load of circuit
Contacts may supply
current to an
electromagnetic switch

Working Of a Transistor
Cut-off characteristics
The input and Base are grounded ( 0v )
Base-Emitter voltage VBE < 0.7v
Base-Emitter junction is reverse biased
Base-Collector junction is reverse biased
Transistor is fully-OFF ( Cut-off region )
No Collector current flows ( IC = 0 )
VOUT = VCE = VCC = 1
Transistor operates as an open switch
Saturation characteristics
The input and Base are connected to VCC
Base-Emitter voltage VBE > 0.7v
Base-Emitter junction is forward biased
Base-Collector junction is forward biased
Transistor is fully-ON ( saturation region )
Max Collector current flows ( IC = Vcc/RL )
VCE = 0 ( ideal saturation )
VOUT = VCE = 0
Transistor operates as a closed switch
MOSFET
MOSFET stands for Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor
The minimum ON-state gate
voltage required to ensure that the
MOSFET remains ON when
carrying the selected drain current
can be determined from the v-i
transfer curves above.
Likewise, when VIN is LOW or
reduced to zero, the MOSFET Qpoint moves from point A to point
B along the load line. The channel
resistance is very high so the
transistor acts like an open circuit
and no current flows through the
channel.
Cut-off characteristics
Here the operating conditions of the transistor are zero input gate
voltage ( VIN ), zero drain current ID and output voltage VDS =
VDD. Therefore for an enhancement type MOSFET the
conductive channel is closed and the device is switched OFF.
The input and Gate are grounded ( 0v )
Gate-source voltage less than threshold
voltage VGS < VTH
MOSFET is OFF ( Cut-off region )
No Drain current flows ( ID = 0 )
VOUT = VDS = VDD = 1
MOSFET operates as an open switch
Saturation Characteristics
In the saturation or linear region, the transistor will be biased so that the
maximum amount of gate voltage is applied to the device which results in
the channel resistance RDS(on being as small as possible with maximum
drain current flowing through the MOSFET switch. Therefore for the
enhancement type MOSFET the conductive channel is open and the device
is switched ON.
The input and Gate are connected to VDD
Gate-source voltage is much greater than
threshold voltage VGS > VTH
MOSFET is ON ( saturation region )
Max Drain current flows ( ID = VDD / RL )
VDS = 0V (ideal saturation)
Min channel resistance RDS(on) < 0.1
VOUT = VDS = 0.2V due to RDS(on)
MOSFET operates as a low resistance closed
switch
Electromagnetic Switches
Also
called a relay
Uses a small amount of
current to control a higher
amperage circuit
Relays are (NO) type
circuits
Often controlled by low
amperage switch circuit
