Semiconductor Electronics Materials Devices And Simple Circuits Ques 95

95. For amplification by a triode, the signal to be amplified is given to

[1992]

(a) the cathode

(b) the grid

(c) the glass-envelope

(d) the anode

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 95.(b)

Solution:

  1. (b) The amplifying action of a triode is based on the fact that a small change in grid voltage causes a large change in plate current. The AC input signal which is to be amplified is superimposed on the grid potential.
