Semiconducting Devices Question 12
Question: Assertion : Two P-N junction diodes placed back to back, will work as a NPN transistor. Reason : The P-region of two PN junction diodes back to back will form the base of NPN transistor.
Options:
A) If both assertion and reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
B) If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.
C) If assertion is true but reason is false.
D) If the assertion and reason both are false.
E) If assertion is false but reason is true.

Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
Two PN-junctions placed back to back cannot work as NPN transistor because in transistor the width and concentration of doping of P-semiconductor is less as compared to width doping of N-type semiconductor type.
