collector has larger area than base and emitter because base collector is reverse biased hence current flow here due to minority carriers and the large power dissipation take place by the majority carriers this power dissipated in the form of heat. to cool the device from heat we made the larger area.

Why collector is made larger than base and emitter in a transistor?
Collector has larger area than base and emitter because base collector is reverse biased, hence the current flow here due to the minority carriers and the large power dissipation takes place by the majority carriers, this power dissipated in the form of heat.. To cool the device from heat we made the larger area........
Why is the collector region in the transistor the largest?
The collector is so named because it collects electrons from base. The collector is the largest of the three regions, thus it must dissipate more heat than the emitter or base. that is why it has a larger area.
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.
What is cutoff region in transistor?
The cutoff region is when the transistor doesn't have sufficient base current to drive a larger current from emitter to collector. Therefore, the transistor does not turn on and stays shut off.
What is darlington configuaration?
A Darlington pair uses two transistors connected to behave as a single transistor with a very high current gain (beta). Transistor-1 has its collector connected to the collector of transistor-2. Transistor-1 has its emitter connected to the base of transistor-2. The base of transistor-1 with the emitter and collector of transistor-2 is used as a single transistor.
What are the parts of a transistor?
The emitter, the base, and the collector are parts of a transistor.
Why is the base current in transistor very small?
Because a transistor's collector current is proportionally limited by its base current, it can be used as a sort of current-controlled switch. A relatively small flow of electrons sent through the base of the transistor has the ability to exert control over a much larger flow of electrons through the collector.
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.
What is Collector Emitter saturation voltage?
Collector-emitter saturation voltage refers to the voltage drop across the collector-emitter junction of a transistor when the transistor is in saturation mode. It is the minimum voltage required to keep the transistor in saturation, where the transistor is fully turned on and conducting maximum current.
What is collector modulation?
Collector modulation is the amplitude modulation in which modulator varies the collector voltage of a transistor.
What is the purpose of the base of a transistor?
Recombination of negative and positive charge carriers
Bc stands fo what in transistor?
base to collector
