Question

The bias condition for a transistor to be used in the cutoff region is called

1- forward-reverse

2- forward-forward

3- reverse-reverse

4- reverse-forward

Expert Solution

Step 1

Now the transistor can be used in different mode depending on the bias condition of Emitter-Base junction and Collector-Base junction.

Different types of transistor modes are ,

Cut-off mode
Active mode
reverse active mode
Saturation mode

Now we have been asked to determine bias condition of the Emitter-base junction and collector base junction while operating transistor in the cutoff region or mode.

While in cut-off region the transistor works as open circuit or off switch.
