Which method of biasing is used for operating a transistor as an amplifier?

One Line Answer

Solution 1

For use as an amplifier, the transistor should be inactive mode. Therefore, the emitter-base junction is forward biased and the collector-base junction is reverse biased. Also, an amplifier uses an emitter bias rather than a base bias.

Solution 2

For transistor operating as an amplifier, the emitter-base junction is forward biased while the collector-base junction is reverse biased.
