When a transistor is used as an amplifier, it is operated in the _____________ region?
Correct answer: C. Active
- A. Off
- B. Saturation
- C. Active
- D. None of the above
Explanation
For amplification, the transistor must remain in the active region, where collector current varies approximately with base current and the signal is not clipped. Cutoff and saturation are switching regions rather than the normal linear amplification region.
