The basic condition for a transistor amplifier circuit is:

Correct answer: A. The base-emitter junction should be forward biased

  • A. The base-emitter junction should be forward biased
  • B. The base-emitter junction should be reverse biased
  • C. The base-colector junction should be forward biased
  • D. None of these

Explanation

The transistor will function as an amplifier by increasing the intensity of a weak signal. There will be three terminals on the transistor: base, collector, and emitter. The transistor's emitter and base will be forward biassed, but the collector base area is reverse biassed.

About Electronics

A p-n junction forms when p-type and n-type semiconductor regions meet, creating a depletion layer, barrier potential and rectifying action. The work covers forward and reverse bias, junction current, diode characteristics, and how a diode converts alternating current into pulsating direct current through half-wave and full-wave rectification.
