A transistor is a___________operated device?
Correct answer: A. current
- A. current
- B. voltage
- C. both voltage and current
- D. none of the above
Explanation
A transistor is commonly described as a current-operated device because its output collector current is controlled by the base current. This distinguishes it from a field-effect transistor, which is primarily voltage controlled.
