Very nonlinear. If you need operation approximatinglinearity, a transistor must be limited to a very narrow range of operation.

Why you mention diode is a nonlinear device and transistor is a linear device?

since the diode shows its characteristics in a non linearly it is called as nonlinear element since the transistor shows its characteristics in a linear way it s called as linear element Transistors are typically operated in their linear region (such as when used in amplifier circuits), or as switches (where you will in general ignore the nonlinearity of the transistor). Transistors are typically DC biased to operate in this linear region. Diodes are not biased in this way. Strictly speaking, both are nonlinear devices, although transistors can be used in their linear operation region, while diodes are not.


What is the difference between nonlinear devices and linear devices?

In saturation region transistor acts as a non linear device i.e, there is no linear relation between input and output because in saturation region output does not change for variation in input. Whereas in other operating mode transistor acts as a linear device.


Is rectifier a non linear device?

diode is nonlinear device,so device from diode is also nonlinear


Is a inductor linear device?

Inductor is a nonlinear device. since v=L di/dt.


Is transistor a linear or non linear device?

we will operate transistor mainly in 4 regions..namely active ,cutoff,saturation and pinch off region depending on the type of biasing. if it is under active region then transistor is a linear device.. linearity in the sense if the output is proportional to input then it is said to be linear.


Why a transistor is a non linear devices?

A: THE WORD IS LINEAR. yes it is not a very linear device as a function of current


What is load line concept?

A load line is used in graphical analysis of nonlinear electronic circuits, representing the constraint other parts of the circuit place on a non-linear device, like a diode or transistor. It is usually drawn on a graph of the current vs the voltage in the nonlinear device, called the device's characteristic curve. A load line, usually a straight line, represents the response of a linear circuit connected to the nonlinear device in question. The operating point(s) of the circuit are the points where the characteristic curve and the load line intersect; at these points the current and voltage parameters of both parts of the circuit match


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 is the abbreviation for 1N4007?

1n4007 is pn junction transistor. it is a non linear device


Is this equation linear or nonlinear y0?

linear (A+)


Is the function y8x linear or nonlinear?

linear


Why bias a transistor?

A transistor begin to conduct if the Vbe is ~.6v following an exponential curve therefore non very linear. by biasing it is possible to achieve a linear portion of the load lines
