An n-p-n transistor can be considered to be equivalent to two diodes connected. The correct figure out of the following is
(a)

(b)

(c)

(d)

- A a
- B b
- C c
- D d
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) b
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation

- In an n-p-n transistor, there are two junctions n-p junction and p-n junction.
- So the left side of the base will be an \(n-p\) junction and the right side of the base will be a p-n junction.
- So, npn transistor = opposite pn diode and pn diode.
- And this is shown in option 2.
- So the correct answer is option 2.
