The 2N2905AL is a bipolar junction transistor (BJT) device, which belongs to a group of transistors known as the \'single\'. Its application field and working principle depend on the type of BJT chosen. A BJT can be used in many electronic circuits, such as amplifiers, logic circuits, switching, and monitoring. Let\'s take a look at the application area of the 2N2905AL, its working principle and then discuss the advantages and disadvantages.

2N2905AL is a general-purpose NPN BJT, it is suitable for medium power, low-frequency and low-voltage amplifier applications. The device is designed to be used in junction currents between 10mA to 100mA. Its continuous DC collector current is designed to operate between 200mA to 800mA. It has a maximum collector to emitter voltage of 60V, up to a minimum base to emitter voltage of 6V. The 2N2905AL requires both a negative base voltage and have a collector current and the base current for proper operation. It has maximum power dissipation at 625 milliwatts and voltage gain up to 90. It is available in two versions, one with a voltage gain of 50 and the other with a voltage gain of 90.

The 2N2905AL\'s working principle lies in its junction construction. A BJT consists of three terminals: the base, collector, and emitter. The base is the switching element, while the collector and emitter correspond to output and input components respectively. The emitter voltage depends on the current at the base and is controlled by the base current. Changes in the base current therefore control the current flow through the collector, resulting in amplification or switching.

The main advantage of a 2N2905AL bipolar junction transistor is its simple configuration, which makes it easier and cheaper to manufacture. Additionally, BJTs can exhibit very high input and output impedances, resulting in high gain and/or low power consumption. They also have very low capacitance between the input and output terminals. Furthermore, BJTs have no DC operating power, meaning there is no risk of overheating.

A major disadvantage of the 2N2905AL BJT is its limited current amplification. The design and construction of BJTs is such that their current amplification is very poor compared to other transistor types. Additionally, their high input and output impedances often miss small voltage signals, which can lead to noise and distorted outputs. Furthermore, they can also be prone to thermal runaway, where the temperature increases as the device begins to break down and fail.

In conclusion, the 2N2905AL bipolar junction transistor is an effective device for low power, low-frequency and low-voltage analog signal applications. Its application field and working principle depend on the type of BJT chosen. While the device has several advantages, such as simple construction, high input and output impedance and low capacitance, it also possesses several drawbacks. These include limited current amplification, difficulty in amplifying small voltage signals and the risk of thermal runaway if the device is not used in the correct manner.
