Why is the current in transistor represented as: B>E in NPN E>B in PNP Why C>E; C>B or something else? B- Base C-Collector E- Emitter | |

I can't make any sense of your question.

The base current is less than the emitter current. The base voltage is more positive than the emitter voltage for a turned on NPN transistor. The emitter voltage is more positive than the base voltage for a turned on PNP transistor. Quote:
The collector voltage is less than the base voltage for a saturated transistor.

Sorry Everybody....it was my vague way of expressing my question I just want to know why in the Diagrammatic Representation of Transistor, the current directions are denoted by an arrow > i,e,. Base to Emitter in Npn Transistor Emitter to Base in Pnp Transistor? my question is is why not current direction is denoted as Collector to emitter?(because even that would mean the same) | |

Because the current flows in the arrow direction. Doesn't that make any sense? Is there any better notation that you can suggest?
