Question 1.
What is a BJT?
Show hintHide hint
Think about the types of charge carriers.
Question 2.
Define collector current.
Show hintHide hint
Reflect on where the current is coming from.
3Question 3.
What happens when two junctions in a BJT are too far apart?
- It functions well.
- It behaves like two separate diodes.
- It increases the collector current.
Show hintHide hint
Consider the distance between junctions.
4Question 4.
True or False: A strong reverse bias increases the availability of electrons in the base region.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Recall how bias influences carrier availability.
Question 5.
Calculate the collector current in a BJT with a given reverse bias of -5V, emitter current of 10mA, using the corrected current equations.
Show hintHide hint
Ensure you account for the reversal of bias in your calculation.
Question 6.
Explain the step-by-step effects of changing bias conditions from forward to reverse, specifically listing how current profiles alter.
Show hintHide hint
Break down the phases of bias change.
