Is transistor a passive element

No, the transistor is very active; slight changes to the input at the base produce dynamic and substantial activity at the collector.

Both resistors and coils are examples of passive elements/devices because their individual tasks and values are firmly set and do not vary.

Whether a capacitor is an active or a passive element?

Passive element. An active element is an element that can generate power. Capacitors can't generate power, hence they are passive elements.

What is the storage element of EEPROM?

The storage element of EEPROM is a floating gate transistor. This transistor can trap or release electrons, which alters the conductivity of the transistor and determines whether a binary value (0 or 1) is stored in a specific memory cell.


What the equation for Ohms Law?

Ohm's Law states that, for a passive element, V (the voltage drop) is proportional to I (the current in the component), and the proportional constant is R (the resistance). Namely, V = R * I. For DC operations in a passive element, Ohm's Law is dealing with scalar quantities. For AC, V and I become vectors (phasors) for Ohm's Law to be valid. A passive element is an electrical component that does not have gain, voltage gain or current gain. Examples are resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, and Transformers. An active element is one that has gain. Examples are transistors (MOSFET, bipolar, and JFET). A solar cell is an active element. Although Ohm's Law does not apply to transistors, the Law still can apply to the passive components of transistors, if we represent the transistor with passive elements and active elements. ======================================


Transistor is a linear or non linear circuit element?

it is not a passive device .y because it is used to amplify the voltage and current .so as according to the definition of active device is the device which is used to amplify the current r voltage .hence transistor is a active device.


What are the three element of a transistor?

For a BJT transistor the three basic elements are collector, base and emitter. For a FET transistor are drain, gate and source which are analogous for the BJT parts mentioned before.
