SUMMARY
The objective has been to give a physical understanding of how the npn BJT is fabricated.
The fabrication sequence for a typical npn BJT has been illustrated
Methods of implementing other active devices in the npn BJT technology were shown.
Simple npn BJT technology chooses to emphasize the npn over the pnp because the npn
BJT performance is always superior to the pnp BJT performance. Thus, the philosophy
in design is to use the npn where ever possible and incorporate the pnp only where it
has to be used.
An advanced BJT technology has been illustrated.
We will examine the passive components that can be implemented in a typical npn BJT
process later.
