A transistor is a three-layer, three-terminal device.
The three layers can be (n-p-n or p-n-p) and the three terminals are the collector, base, and emitter.
Transistor when working in the saturation region acts as a closed switch (ON Button) and in the cut-off region acts as an open switch (OFF Button).
