As the temperature of a transistor goes up, the base-emitter resistance___________?
Correct answer: A. decreases
- A. decreases
- B. increases
- C. remains the same
- D. none of the above
Explanation
As temperature rises, leakage current increases and the base-emitter voltage needed for conduction falls, so the effective base-emitter resistance decreases. This follows from the transistor's stronger carrier activity at higher temperature.
