Question

In a transistor, the base is?

• A. a conductor with high conductivity
• B. an insulator
• C. an extrinsic semiconductor
• D. an intrinsic semiconductor

Answer 1

The correct option is C

an extrinsic semiconductor

Transistor

1. It is a semiconductor device.
2. It transfers a weak signal from low resistance to high resistance circuit.
3. A transistor has two PN junction diodes connected back to back, and three terminals, base, emitter and collector

The base of a semiconductor

1. Base of a transistor is very thin.
2. They can be either p-type or n-type.
3. They are made up of extrinsic semiconductors.

Therefore, Option C is correct
