A transistor is a small electronic device that controls the flow of electric current, acting like a tiny switch or gate that can be turned on and off. Transistors are fundamental building blocks of modern electronics, enabling the operation of everything from radios and computers to smartphones and other digital devices.

Il transistor (termine inglese, contrazione di trans(fer) "trasferimento [di cariche elettriche]" e (re)sistor "resistore"; pronuncia italianizzata "transìstor") o transistore è un dispositivo a semiconduttore largamente usato nell'elettronica analogica. Il dispositivo consentendo di realizzare circuiti che non richiedevano le elevate tensioni anodiche delle valvole termoioniche, permise la realizzazione di apparecchi radio portatili alimentati a pile. Il termine, sottintendendo "radio a transistor", è stato quindi spesso utilizzato nel linguaggio comune anche per identificare tali apparecchi, che raggiunsero il mercato di massa negli anni cinquanta del XX secolo.
