What will happen if emitter as well as collector in a transistor are forward biased?
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
In this aituation, the majority charge carriers will flow in the emitter-base circuit. In this case, the working of transistor will be equivalent to two p-n junction diode with a common base. It means the purpose of transistor will be defeated.
