The term bipolar reflects the fact that holes and electrons
participate in the injection process into the oppositely
polarized material.
Construction
npn transistor
Cut-off Region
The cutoff region is defined as that region where the
collector current is 0 A.
Typical factors of voltage amplification range from 50 to 300 Active Region
while current amplification (IC/IE) is always less than 1. The active region for the common-emitter configuration is
that portion of the upper-right quadrant that has the
COMMON-EMITTER CONFIGURATION greatest linearity, that is, that region in which the curves for
IB are nearly straight and equally spaced.
Notice that the magnitude of IB is in microamperes,
compared to milliamperes of IC. The collector-to-emitter
voltage will influence the magnitude of the collector
current.
Cut-off Region
Cut-off region is defined by zero base current which is
BETA (β)
Common-base
