In NPN transistor, when emitter junction is forward biased and collector junction is reverse biased, the transistor will operate in Correct Answer Active region

The transistor operates in the Active region when the emitter junction is forward biased and the collector is reverse biased in the NPN transistor.

The various biasing modes for an npn transistor are as follows:

Mode

EB Biasing

Collector Base Biasing

Application

Reverse

Reverse

OFF switch

Active
