(1) There are two PN junctions in a bipolar transistor. Each one can be either forward
biased (FB) or reverse biased (RB). In the reverse active mode of operation, how
are these two junctions biased? ( ).
A. Emitter-base is FB and base-collector is FB.
B. Emitter-base is FB and base-collector is RB.
C. Emitter-base is RB and base-collector is FB.
D. Emitter-base is RB and base-collector is RB.
(2) In a good bipolar transistor operating in the active region, what is the spatial profile
of minority carriers in the base? ( ).
A. Exponentially increasing from emitter to collector.
B. Exponentially decreasing from emitter to collector.
C. Linearly increasing from emitter to collector.
D. Linearly decreasing from emitter to collector.
