Plot vs for increasing base current , and mark the cut-off, active, quasi-saturation and hard-saturation regions.
The static output characteristics of a power bipolar junction transistor (PBJT) show how the collector current varies with the collector-emitter voltage for different fixed values of base current . The vertical axis is and the horizontal axis is ; each curve corresponds to one value of , and increases as increases.
The regions to mark are:
- Cut-off region: ; only a small leakage current flows, both junctions are reverse biased and the transistor is OFF (curve lies almost on the axis).
- Active region: the emitter-base junction is forward biased and the collector-base junction reverse biased; and the curves are nearly flat ( almost independent of ). …
