What Is True About Saturation Region?
Which of the following is true for the saturation region of BJT transistor

BJT transistor

The first bipolar junction transistors were invented by Bell Labs' William Shockley, which applied for patent (2,569,347) on June 26, 1948.

? Explanation: The collector current is directly proportional to the base current in the saturation region of the BJT.

Which is true for MOSFET saturation region?

i is false and ii and iii are true. Solution: Saturation current does not depends on the voltage difference between the source and the drain in the saturation region of a MOSFET. An n-channel MOSFET operating with VOV=0.5V exhibits a linear resistance = 1 kΩ when VDS is very small.

What happens in saturation region?

Saturation region

This is the region in which transistor tends to behave as a closed switch. The transistor has the effect of its collector and Emitter being shorted. The collector and Emitter currents are maximum in this mode of operation.
