1What is the typical forward bias voltage drop across a silicon PN junction diode at room temperature?
A.0.2 V to 0.3 V
B.0.6 V to 0.7 V
C.1.2 V to 1.5 V
D.2.0 V to 2.5 V
Explanation: A silicon PN junction diode requires approximately 0.6 V to 0.7 V of forward bias voltage to overcome the barrier potential of the depletion layer at room temperature. Germanium diodes require about 0.2 V to 0.3 V.
2Which element is commonly added to pure intrinsic silicon as a pentavalent dopant to produce an N-type semiconductor?
A.Gallium
B.Boron
C.Phosphorus
D.Indium
Explanation: Adding a pentavalent element such as phosphorus, arsenic, or antimony to intrinsic silicon introduces extra free conduction electrons, creating an N-type semiconductor. Trivalent elements like boron, gallium, and indium create P-type material.
3How is a Zener diode connected in a DC voltage regulator circuit?
A.Forward biased in series with the load
B.Reverse biased in parallel across the load
C.Reverse biased in series with the load
D.Forward biased in parallel across the load
Explanation: A Zener diode is connected in reverse bias parallel across the load resistor (with a current-limiting series resistor) so that it operates in its controlled breakdown region, maintaining a constant voltage across the load.
4What is the primary advantage of a Schottky diode compared to a conventional silicon PN junction diode in high-frequency switching circuits?
A.Higher reverse breakdown voltage rating
B.Lower forward voltage drop and zero reverse recovery time
C.Ability to withstand higher ambient temperatures
D.Greater current handling capacity for a given chip area
Explanation: Schottky diodes use a metal-to-semiconductor junction, which yields a low forward voltage drop (approx. 0.15 V to 0.4 V) and lacks minority carrier storage, making reverse recovery time virtually zero and ideal for high-speed switching.
5In a full-wave bridge rectifier operating from a 50 Hz AC supply, what is the ripple frequency present at the DC output?
A.25 Hz
B.50 Hz
C.100 Hz
D.200 Hz
Explanation: A full-wave bridge rectifier conducts on both positive and negative half-cycles of the AC input, doubling the fundamental ripple frequency to 2 * f = 2 * 50 Hz = 100 Hz.
6For an NPN bipolar junction transistor operating in the active region, what are the bias conditions of the emitter-base and collector-base junctions?
A.Emitter-base forward biased, collector-base reverse biased
B.Emitter-base reverse biased, collector-base forward biased
C.Both junctions forward biased
D.Both junctions reverse biased
Explanation: In the active region suitable for linear amplification, the emitter-base junction is forward biased to allow carrier injection, while the collector-base junction is reverse biased to collect minority carriers.
7If a bipolar junction transistor has a collector current Ic of 9.8 mA and an emitter current Ie of 10.0 mA, what is its α (a) current gain?
A.0.02
B.0.98
C.49
D.50
Explanation: Common-base current gain α is defined as a = Ic / Ie. Here, a = 9.8 mA / 10.0 mA = 0.98.
8What is the key operational distinction between an N-channel JFET and an N-channel enhancement-mode MOSFET?
A.JFET conducts with Vgs = 0 V (depletion device); enhancement MOSFET requires positive Vgs to turn ON
B.JFET requires a positive gate voltage to conduct; enhancement MOSFET conducts with Vgs = 0 V
C.JFET uses insulated gate oxide; enhancement MOSFET uses a reverse-biased PN junction
D.JFET is a current-controlled device; enhancement MOSFET is a voltage-controlled device
Explanation: JFETs are depletion-mode devices that conduct maximum drain current at Vgs = 0 V and pinch off with negative Vgs. Enhancement-mode MOSFETs have no channel at Vgs = 0 V and require a positive gate voltage exceeding threshold Vth to create an inversion channel.
9Which transistor amplifier configuration provides high input impedance, low output impedance, and unity voltage gain?
A.Common Emitter
B.Common Base
C.Common Collector (Emitter Follower)
D.Cascode Amplifier
Explanation: The Common Collector (Emitter Follower) configuration has high input impedance, low output impedance, current gain, and a non-inverting voltage gain of approximately +1 (unity). It is used for impedance matching.
10In an operational amplifier inverting amplifier circuit with input resistor Rin = 10 kOhm and feedback resistor Rf = 100 kOhm, what is the ideal closed-loop voltage gain Av?
A.+10
B.-10
C.+100
D.-100
Explanation: For an inverting op-amp configuration, closed-loop voltage gain Av = - (Rf / Rin) = - (100 kOhm / 10 kOhm) = -10. The negative sign signifies 180° phase inversion.
