What are the three electrodes of a bipolar transistor?
- ACollector, source and drain
- BGate, source and drain
- CCollector, emitter and base
- DDrain, base and source
Correct answer: C — Collector, emitter and base. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
A bipolar transistor uses three specific parts to control current: the base acts as the gatekeeper, the emitter releases the flow, and the collector gathers it. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
