Question
Which of the following conditions are needed to properly bias an npn transistor amplifier?
Options
A. Forward bias the base/emitter junction and reverse bias the base/collector junction.
B. Forward bias the collector/base junction and reverse bias the emitter/base junction.
C. Apply a positive voltage on the n-type material and a negative voltage on the p-type material.
D. Apply a large voltage on the base.

Correct Answer

Forward bias the base/emitter junction and reverse bias the base/collector junction.
