MCQ
In transistor, forward bias is always smaller than the reverse bias. The correct reason is
- ✓To avoid excessive heating of transistor
- BTo maintain a constant base current
- CTo produce large voltage gain
- DNone of these
✓
Answer
Correct option: A.
To avoid excessive heating of transistor
a
(a) If forward bias is made large, the majority charge carriers would move from the emitter to the collector through the base with high velocity. This would give rise to excessive heat causing damage to transistor.
