Bipolar Junction Transistors (BJT) - Technical MCQs

Q1:

With the positive probe on an NPN base, an ohmmeter reading between the other transistor terminals should be:

A open

B infinite

C low resistance

D high resistance

ANS:C - low resistance

Base connected the +ve terminal it's forward biasing condition. Collector base depletion region is high similarly emitter-base depletion region is low compared to CE. So, it's low resistance.
