a transistor can only work in active region cox in active region collector base junction is in reverse bias and emitter base junction is in forward bias.

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.


A transistor is in active region when?

a transistor in active region when emitter junction is forward biased nd collector junction is reverse biased


What is the biasing technique in transistor for it to be in active region?

For a transistor to be in active region : Base Emitter junction should be forward biased and Emitter collector junction should be reverse biased.


Is transistor linear or non linear?

linear in active region....


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.


What is saturation and active region in a transistor?

The output current of a transistor is controlled by the current in the 'base' input: Increasing the control current will increase the output current in a more or less linear fashion. In the saturation region, this is no longer true: The transistor is nearing the limits of how much current it can conduct, so increasing the control current further has little or no effect. When using a transistor as an amplifier, you want to stay away from the saturation region as it would distort the signal you are amplifying. When using a transistor as an on/off switch, as in digital circuits, being in the saturated region is 'on' and a normal mode of operation.


Is transistor active element?

yes transistor is an active element.


Why transistor is called transfer of resistor?

Transistor=Transfer+Resistor. When Transistor operates in active region its input resistance is high and output resistance is low. So,We can consider transistor as a device which transfers its resistance from high to low. And by this property transistor amplifies input signal.

Why is a transistor an active element?

Transistor is an active element because it can amplify the signal applied.


What are the operating regions of transistors?

operating region of the transistor is the area of the voltage and an electronic configuration in which a transistor can work with its full efficiency. In that operating region transistor can be used easily what above said by harsh is correct...the following may help u further... Based on application the transistor is decided where to lie. for example transistors are made to lie in active region to make it as amplifier. when transistors are used as switch it is made to lie in saturation region(when switch is made as ON) and cut-off region(when switch is made as OFF).....


Is transistor active or passive element?

it is a active component.
