we will operate transistor mainly in 4 regions..namely active ,cutoff,saturation and pinch off region depending on the type of biasing.
if it is under active region then transistor is a linear device..
linearity in the sense if the output is proportional to input then it is said to be linear.
What else can I help you with?
Why bias a transistor?
A transistor begin to conduct if the Vbe is ~.6v following an exponential curve therefore non very linear. by biasing it is possible to achieve a linear portion of the load lines
What is the significance of dc load line in a transistor?
A load line is used in graphic analysis of circuits, having both linear and non-linear parts, representing the constraint the other parts of the circuit put on the non-linear transistor. It represents the response of the linear circuit connected to the transistor. The DC load line describes the DC operation of a transistor graphically.
Is rectifier a non linear device?
diode is nonlinear device,so device from diode is also nonlinear
The correct formula to determine how many Amps of current a device will draw is?
There is no formula it depends on the device. If the device is linear it can be ascertain but if it a non linear then it becomes quite complex
Is zener diode a linear device?
Zener diode is not a linear device... it is non-linear one. Since linear devices are those devices which have linear characteristics(V-I CHAR.), or follows the Ohm's law i.e. voltage is directly proportional to current. but in case of Zener diode ohm's law fails down. the V-I char. in both forward biased & reverse biased condition is non-linear. So. Zener diode is non-linear device
Why a transistor is a non linear devices?
A: THE WORD IS LINEAR. yes it is not a very linear device as a function of current
What is the abbreviation for 1N4007?
1n4007 is pn junction transistor. it is a non linear device
Transistor is a linear or non linear circuit element?
it is not a passive device .y because it is used to amplify the voltage and current .so as according to the definition of active device is the device which is used to amplify the current r voltage .hence transistor is a active device.
What is the difference between nonlinear devices and linear devices?
In saturation region transistor acts as a non linear device i.e, there is no linear relation between input and output because in saturation region output does not change for variation in input. Whereas in other operating mode transistor acts as a linear device.
Why bias a transistor?
A transistor begin to conduct if the Vbe is ~.6v following an exponential curve therefore non very linear. by biasing it is possible to achieve a linear portion of the load lines
Is transistor linear or non linear?
A transistor can function in both linear and non-linear modes. In the linear mode, it can amplify small signals with a linear relationship between input and output. In the non-linear mode, the transistor operates as a switch, turning on or off based on the input signal.
What is the significance of dc load line in a transistor?
A load line is used in graphic analysis of circuits, having both linear and non-linear parts, representing the constraint the other parts of the circuit put on the non-linear transistor. It represents the response of the linear circuit connected to the transistor. The DC load line describes the DC operation of a transistor graphically.
Why you mention diode is a nonlinear device and transistor is a linear device?
since the diode shows its characteristics in a non linearly it is called as nonlinear element since the transistor shows its characteristics in a linear way it s called as linear element Transistors are typically operated in their linear region (such as when used in amplifier circuits), or as switches (where you will in general ignore the nonlinearity of the transistor). Transistors are typically DC biased to operate in this linear region. Diodes are not biased in this way. Strictly speaking, both are nonlinear devices, although transistors can be used in their linear operation region, while diodes are not.
Whether the transistor is linear or nonlinear device-?
Very nonlinear. If you need operation approximatinglinearity, a transistor must be limited to a very narrow range of operation.
How much gain does a good transistor usually have?
A: A transistor has non linear gain. To find the gain a Q point must be specified
What is linear and non linear devices explain?
There are many examples of these. I would compare a linear device as a device giving a linear output as a result of the input. This can be an amplifier or simply the circuits that makes up the amplifier. A non-linear device could be a computer chip or a logic chip that is either on or off (only 2 stages) on both input and output. Some devices combine linear and non linear working modes. A typical OpAmp has got 2 inputs that can vary, where as the output is either On (close to input voltage of the circuit) or Off (close to input negative voltage or GND of the circuit) Other forms of linearities can be within a single transistor. It may have a linear voltage curve. This curve can also be non linear. This most often very dependent upon temperature.
What are the biasing roles of transistor?
A: Transistor to be effective as an linear amplifier it must be operated in its linear load range. The biasing scheme is to insure that the transistor is put in its linear/load range
