Why are the emitter and collector regions not interchangeable in a BJT?
Why are the emitter and collector regions not interchangeable in a BJT?
- Due to the difference in doping levels (correct)
- Because they are physically identical
- Due to their interchangeable nature
- Because they have the same doping level
