| 1. | The forward current is very small and becomes equivalent to the reverse current of a conventional diode.
|
| 2. | The " gain " of a bipolar transistor normally refers to forward current transfer ratio, either " h"
|
| 3. | At sufficient voltages, the thyristor changes to its on state with low voltage drop and large forward current.
|
| 4. | The most important parameter for transistors is usually the forward current gain, h 21, in the common emitter configuration.
|
| 5. | At high frequencies, the PIN diode appears as a resistor whose resistance is an inverse function of its forward current.
|
| 6. | Therefore, the carrier distribution in the whole device is governed by a dynamic equilibrium between reverse current and forward current.
|
| 7. | Typically the specification will primarily provide a maximum forward voltage drop at one or more forward currents and a reverse leakage current.
|
| 8. | Typically, an inverter consists of an NPN transistor with the emitter connected to ground and the base biased with a forward current.
|
| 9. | To my understanding both terms describe a forward current that flows the p-n diode under the influence of an externally applied voltage.
|
| 10. | The transistor operated in response to light emitted from the LED when forward current bias was generated across the junction of the diode.
