UJT Equivalent Circuit DetailsRB1 - Internal dynamic resistance of the Si bar between B1 & emitter junction. This resistance is variable because its value depends upon the bias voltage across the pn junctionRB2 - Internal dynamic resistance of the Si bar between B2 & emitter junctionThe pn junction is represented in the emitter by a diode D

UJT Equivalent Circuit DetailsWith no voltage applied to the UJT, the inter- base resistance is given by
whose value lies b/w 4 k & 10 k2. If a voltage VBB is applied b/w the bases with emitter open (IE =0), the voltage across RB1 is
