Textbook Question
Chapter 17, Problem 1TFQ
In a bipolar transistor, if the base-emitter junction is reverse-biased, the transistor will be cutoff.
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Whether the given statement is true or false.
Answer to Problem 1TFQ
The statement is true.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
The transistor will be in cutoff region, if the base emitter junction is reverse biased in the bipolar transistor.
The two pn-junction can be easily biased with the external voltage to operate the transistors properly as an amplifier.
The forward reverse biasing is known when the base emitter junction is forward biased and the base collector is reverse biased for the transistor.
Therefore, the given statement is true.
