Besides the reasons already given for RF, in power electronics, the Ron of
a BJT is far lower than a MOSFET. There is a melding of the two technologies, called the IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor), but they are only good up to a few dozens of KHz where true power bipolars can switch ealily into the tens of MHz. For audio and instrument applications where noise levels need to be below 2nV/Hz, MOSFETS can't even go there (without being dunked in cryogenic fluid). -- Gregg *It's probably useful, even if it can't be SPICE'd* http://geek.scorpiorising.ca |
