In a field-effect transistor, from which electrode do charge carriers leave the channel?
- ADrain
- BCollector
- CSource
- DGate
Correct answer: A — Drain. From the official ISED question bank, verified word for word.
Why
In a field-effect transistor, the channel acts like a pipe where charge carriers flow in from the Source and exit through the Drain, much like water draining from a sink. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
