A junction transistor has 3 pins called:
Emitter, anode and cathode
Emitter, Collector and Base
Anode, cathode and drain
Emitter, Collector and gate
In a transistor:
the current passing from Emitter to Collector controls the base current
the current flowing from base to collector controls the emitter current
the current flowing from base to emitter controls the collector current
the current passing base to emitter controls the Collector current
The current gain of a transistor is given the greek letter
alpha
beta
gamma
delta
To work correctly a transistor has to be set up with the correct voltage and current on the 3 pins. This is called:
Voltage control
Emitter biasing
Correct biasing
Current control
A transistor can be used as a switch when:
the base-emitter current is enoughcause current to flow through the collector
The base voltage is set so as to prevent the flow of electrons in the collector
Their is no base current
It is large enough to short out the pins
Which is the best description of a transistor circuit designed to produce a continuous sine wave?
An amplifier
A pulse generator
An oscillator
An impedance matching circuit
A variable frequency oscillator can be converted to a crytal controlled oscillator by:
