![]() ![]() Here you can connect one side of the load to 12 V and use an NPN transistor to switch the other side to ground. The approach is to add an external 12-V supply and connect its -V output to GND of the MCU. Suppose the load works from 12 V but the MCU logic is at 5 V on, 0 V off. A PNP would go between the voltage source and the load with the other end of the load connected to ground.Ī more realistic example of the two uses is that involving a load driven by a logic device such as the digital output of an MCU. An NPN device would go between the ground and the load with the other end of the load connected to the voltage source. For example, consider the simple case of a load and and a voltage source. PNP devices are used to switch from the positive side. Thus the most common use for NPN devices is for switching the ground side of a circuit. A current flowing into the base of the NPN turns on the transistor whereas a current flowing out of the base turns on the PNP. That brings us to the NPN vs PNP decision. There are other differences between BJTs and FETs in terms of switching speed and gain, but input considerations tend to be the primary focus. Thus FETs are generally the choice when its important to minimize input current/maximize input impedance. However, its gate input current is much less than the base current of a BJT. In contrast, the voltage-controlled FET typically can require on the order of 10 V at its gate to turn on. Thus a bias of less than a volt between a BJT base and emitter is enough to turn on the transistor. The diode turns on and conducts current when it becomes forward biased, and that happens at the same approximate 0.7-V level as for an ordinary discrete diode. What this generally means in practice is that the BJT switches on when its base-emitter diode conducts current. BJTs, whether NPN or PNP, are current controlled whereas FETs are voltage controlled. ![]() A few general guidelines help in making the determination.įirst consider the FET vs BJT question. One question that sometimes arises concerns how to discern when an NPN, PNP, or FET is the best choice for a given circuit application. As for logic functions, IEEE Standard 91/91a promulgates the graphic symbols, which are referenced in ANSI Y32.2/IEEE Standard 315. In North America, ANSI Y32.2-1975, IEEE Standard 315-1975 and CSA Z99-1975 are substantially the same. In Europe, IEC 60617, which is the same as British Standard BS 3939, publishes relevant standards. Schematic symbols and conventions for drawing schematic diagrams differ among nations and jurisdictions. If it points out, the MOSFET is N-channel. If this arrowhead points in, the MOSFET is a P-channel device. Another difference is that in the JFET the arrow head is in the gate lead, not in the drain, which corresponds to the BJT emitter. Keep in mind the mnemonics “not pointing in” and “pointing in please”.įET symbols can be distinguished by the fact that drain and source connections take off perpendicularly from the substrate, rather than at acute angles, diverging from one another. If the arrow head points out, the device is an NPN transistor. The emitter has an arrowhead embedded in the lead, so the remaining lead has to be the collector. ![]() In the BJT symbol, the base lead is perpendicular to and lands at the midpoint of a short line segment representing the semiconductor substrate. Most bipolar junction transistors and field-effect transistors (FETs) have three terminals.

You may feel unready to take a diagnostic test before reviewing content in each of these areas, but this is the wrong attitude. Performing well on the diagnostic is not important-you simply want to know where you’re at now, and then proceed from here with clear and comprehensive knowledge of your strengths and weaknesses. The only truly accurate way to gauge your baseline performance is to do a full-length MCAT that covers each of the MCAT’s sections, which are: With each full-length practice exam taking seven and a half hours to complete, this may seem like an unnecessarily time consuming step, but a good diagnostic test is completely necessary. Why? A proper diagnostic test that mimics the structure and length of the actual MCAT will give you an accurate measure of your current knowledge, without which you’d only be guessing at what you need to review and improve upon. The MCAT is also different from exams you have taken up until this time, both in length and the amount of content it covers, so you should not rely on how you did on other exams as a proxy. ![]() However, no matter what your timeframe is or what you need to focus on during your studying, the first step is always the same: a full-length MCAT diagnostic test. When you’re ready to embark on your months of preparation you’ll assuredly wonder where to start. ![]() If you are wondering how to study for the MCAT and where to start, you are not alone. ![]() Why Should I Take an MCAT Diagnostic Test?Īlthough there are some medical schools that don't require the MCAT, most of them do. Since it’s a grueling, day-long exam, you’ll need to plan your study schedule well ahead of time in order to perform well. Additionally, you want to do everything you can to avoid needing to retake the MCAT, so making sure you optimize your study plan is essential. You don’t want to have to do all this again a few months later! ![]() The process is very easy and intuitive, so don’t hesitate – click the buttons, be confident, and move quickly! BONUS TIP: If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again!īoarding passes become available again at 1PM. ![]() It may be obvious, but speed is the name of the game here. This will allow them to log into that account on their phone so that they can try to get a boarding pass as well! The more people trying, the more chances you have. As a result, everyone should try to get a pass! This means that if anyone’s My Disney Experience account is managed by a family member (such as Dad managing Grandpa’s account, Mom managing daughter’s account, etc.), as long as that person has a phone, they should have their own standalone account. The app is smart enough that even if you’re all trying and click at exactly the same time, it will only give the group’s pass to one person (so you won’t end up with multiple passes). This is unscientific, but we’ve found that the process is slightly faster when not on WiFi, and those few milliseconds make all the difference! Tip #4: Make sure everyone in your party triesĮVERYONE in your party can try to get a boarding pass – and everyone absolutely should. This will allow you to not only focus on what you’re doing, but also have the best cell service possible! Because…Īs long as you’re in an area with good cell service (LTE), we recommend turning off your WiFi. But if you’re at the parks, in an airport, or anywhere else where others are around, we recommend moving as far away from others as possible and finding your own space. If you’re in your hotel room or even alone in your car, you’re set. If you’d like, use a seconds clock such as and watch it on a separate device so you know exactly when 7 AM hits and can immediately refresh. You should plan to have three minutes (at least) to have everyone in your party open the app, make sure they know where to click, and begin refreshing by pulling the page down with your finger. We recommend that a few minutes before, you take out your phone and prepare. Tip #1: Be online earlyīoarding passes fill up INCREDIBLY quickly – we’re talking within 10 seconds or less.

That means that all you have to do is immediately click the next button, at which point, you will (hopefully!) secure a boarding pass. On the “Join Virtual Queue” page, pull the page down to refresh – at exactly 7 AM, you will see the “Join” button – click this immediately.īut, pay attention because this is a must-know tip! Unlike the former queues, the app will now automatically select everyone in your Friends & Family list who also has a park reservation to the appropriate park for that day. When the time comes (be sure to be on BEFORE 7 AM – see Tip #1), scroll down on the homepage of your My Disney Experience app until you find the “Join the Virtual Queue” section and click it (or, click the three lines on the bottom right of the app and select “Virtual Queues”). Everyone in your party should do the same (but more on this below in Tip #4).
