Vbe+Vcb=Vce, hence Vbc=Vbe-VceVce < Vbe will cause a BJT to be in saturation mode. How is it possible that Vce < Vbe will forward bias both the PN junction in a NPN transistor?
mik3,If Vbe is about -0.7V and Vce is about -0.3V then the base-collector diode (NP) will be forward biased. The collector is more positive than the base.
Yes!mik3,
Did you misread his post and think that he said PNP transistor?
