The Advantages of Transistors

The invention of the transistor represents a major milestone in electronics and science in general. Today transistors power everything from cell phones to supercomputers, all of which take advantage of their numerous advantages.

• Size :

One of the biggest advantages of using transistors is their small size. Even though vacuum tubes have continued to grow smaller over the years, transistors have decreased to literally microscopic proportions .

• Weight :

In addition to being smaller, transistors are lighter than their vacuum tube counterparts. This has all of the advantages of a smaller size and also makes transistors perfect for use in mobile electronic devices or scientific instruments.

• Heat
  

Transistors produce far less heat than vacuum tubes .

• .Power Consumption .
  

Transistors also have the advantage of consuming less power than vacuum tubes.This means that they are more efficient and cost less to operate. 

• Durability

Transistors are very durable, in part because of their simple design and metallic construction. Vacuum tubes use a glass bulb that is subject to breakage and must be handled carefully.

Show in the pictures for difference the between vacuum tubes and early transistors.
