Connection of Transistor

Connection of Transistor

1. The terminals of a transistor must be connected to the terminals of a cell correctly to avoid damaging the transistor.
2. Transistor should be connected in such a way that
1. the emitter-base circuit is forward bias
2. the collector-base circuit is reverse bias.

Example:

Emitter-Base: Forward Bias

Collector-Base: Reverse Bias

Connection: CORRECT

Example:

Emitter-Base: Forward Bias

Collector-Base: Reverse Bias

Connection: CORRECT

Example:

Emitter-Base: Forward Bias

Collector-Base: Forward Bias

Connection: INCORRECT

Example:

Emitter-Base: Forward Bias

Collector-Base: Forward Bias

Connection: INCORRECT
