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.
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.
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 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.
What is breakdown region?
The breakdown region of a transistor is the region where the supply voltage, Vcc, becomes so large that the collector-emitter junction of the transistor breaks down and conducts, even though there is no base current.
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.
Why transistors are designed?
For switching applications transistor is biased to operate in the saturation or cutoff region. Transistor in cutoff region will act as an open switching whereas in saturation will act as a closed switch.
What arer the 3 legs of a transistor?
Emitter, Collector and Base cutoff region, saturation region, and liner region

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 another name for depletion mode transistor?
depletion layer depletion zone juntion region space charge region bipolar transistor field effect transistor variable capacitance diode
Why a transistor can be operated in active region?
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.

Why biasing is needed at all?
Biasing is used in a transistor amplifier circuit in order to place the transistor as nearly as possible in the center of its linear region. Transistors have cutoff, linear, and saturation regions. Too little bias current, and you enter cutoff - Too much, and you saturate. Both conditions cause distortion when you attempt to use the transistor as an amplifier, as opposed to a switch.
Which transistor is used for high speed power application?
In transistor the heat is created during transition stage means from cutoff to saturation and reverse, so if transistor used for high frequency application power loss can be minimized. The heat produced during switching is actually power loss.
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.
