This can be quickly done with a multimeter in ohms or diode scale. Test EB & CB junctions as you would ordinary diodes and test CE for leakage both ways (there should be none).

What happens when emitter and collector of a transistor are short?

The transistor acts like a normal pn diode. in NPN transistor the both n i.e.,collector and emitter ane shorted then they become a n and other is p so pn diode is formed. When the emitter and the collector of a transistor are short, the emitter current =the collector current.


How do I identify if a field effect transistor is defective in a circuit?

Is you'll need to short circuit between the drain and the source to identify FET test


How we can identify emmiter in transistor?

The method of identification differs in different type of capacitors. In cylindrical type, the emitter is the terminal nearest to i small notch present. In flat type, its printed on the transistor itself.


Is active is a cutoff region of transistor?

The active region of a transistor is when the transistor has sufficient base current to turn the transistor on and for a larger current to flow from emitter to collector. This is the region where the transistor is on and fully operating.


Different between power transistor and transistor that used in small signal?

Power transistor can conduct large amount of currents through it, more than small signal transistor. power transistor has a vertical structure and small signal transistor has horizontal structure.In power transistor quasi saturation region is present which is absent in the small signal transistor. In power transistor there is a inculsion of drift layer which is not there in the small signal transistor. Power dissipation is less in power transistor and it is more in small signal transistor. b.v.polytechnic,vasai pushkar vaity.

Beacause CT is shorted so it is kept opened


How can you identify the emitter of transistor SL100?

The SL100 transistor has a TO-39 case. In the TO-39, the emitter is closest to the tab, and the collector is furthest away from the tab.

What does 107 indicate in transistor bc107?

Nothing, its simply an arbitrarily assigned number to identify that type of part.

What if a semiconductor diode is being tested using a digital multimeter and the resistance of the diode is 10 ohms in both forward and reverse-biased conditions is the diode shorted or opened?

The diode is neither shorted nor open. It is a zener diode and it is conducting in both directions. If it were truly shorted, it would read closer to zero ohms in both directions.


How do you trouble shoot generator problem if there is no output?

Short the windings and perform resistance testing. Check your rectifier for shorted and/or opened diodes (likely open).


What is Si transistor?

A silicon transistor is a transistor made of silicon.


How do you determine the maximum Wattage of a transistor from its canister markings. Specifically a B22M TCG102A. Any standards websites you could recommend. Thanks.?

It is very difficult to identify transistor watts from the package, due to the increase in dissipation that can be obtained from a heat sink -- not normally provided with the transistor. In your case however, the TCG102A should cross reference to the standard ECG line of electronic components. Find the ratings you seek by searching for the electrical characteristics of the ECG-102A transistor.
