In forward-active mode, the base-emitter and base-collector junctions are biased?
AForward, then reverse
BBoth reverse biased
CReverse, then forward
DBoth forward biased
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Forward, then reverse
Active operation needs the emitter junction forward biased and the collector junction reverse biased.
