MCQ
A working transistor with its three legs marked $P, Q$ and $R$ is tested using a multimeter. No conduction is found between $P$ and $Q$. By connecting the common (negative) terminal of the multimeter to $R$ and the other (positive) terminal to $P$ or $Q$, some resistance is seen on the multimeter. Which of the following is true for the transistor?
  • A
    It is an $npn$ transistor with $R$ as collector
  • It is an $npn$ transistor with $R$ as base
  • C
    It is a $pnp$ transistor with $R$ as collector
  • D
    It is a $pnp$ transistor with $R$ as emitter

Answer

Correct option: B.
It is an $npn$ transistor with $R$ as base
b
