The simplest application of a UJT is as a relaxation oscillator, which is defined as one in which a capacitor is charged gradually and then discharged rapidly.

Explaine operation of UJT .
The UJT (Uni-Junction Transistor) is not typically used as an amplifier because it does not have the necessary characteristics for linear amplification. Its operation is primarily based on negative resistance and it is designed for triggering applications, such as in relaxation oscillators and timing circuits. The UJT has a limited control over output current, making it unsuitable for applications that require linear gain. Instead, BJTs and FETs are preferred for amplification due to their ability to provide a stable and linear relationship between input and output signals.

The On/OFF action in UJT is controlled by emitter current
UJT is an abbreviation for (Unijunction Transistor) the electronic component that is at the heart of a simple timing circuit. A UJT timer is a circuit used in an electonic system to deliver a specific time. For instance, a 30 second UJT timer might be used to turn on a Green traffic signal for 30 seconds, then turn off. UJT is a specifically cheap way of doing this type of timed signal. Timers using UJTs have largely be superseded by timers based on a 555 integrated circuit.
