Forms: 1900s– PNP, 1900s– pnp, 1900s– p-n-p.

Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: p-type adj., n-type adj., p-type adj.

Etymology: < p (in p-type adj.) + n (in n-type adj.) + p (in p-type adj.). Compare NPN adj.

Electronics.

Designating a semiconductor device in which an n-type region is sandwiched between two p-type regions. Also as n.

PNP n. (also pnp, PnP, pNp) U.S. slang (originally and chiefly in gay usage) = party and play n. at party n. 13h.Recorded earliest in attributive use.
