Question: 12 -

Almost all resistor are made in a monolithic integrated circuit

Options:
  1. during the collector diffusion

  2. during the emitter diffusion

  3. during the base diffusion

  4. while growing the exitaxial layer

  5. Answer:

    during the emitter diffusion

Question: 13 -

Consider the following statements :-

The temperature dependance of resistivity of a sample of N-type silicon is based upon carrier mobility variations with temperature because

(i) The resistivity of silicon increases with temperature

(ii) The mobility decreases with temperature

(iii) The carrier concentration increases with temperature

(iv) The resistivity of silicon decreases with temperature 

Which of these statements are correct? 

Options:
  1. ii and i

  2. iii and iv

  3. ii , i and iii

  4. ii , iii and iv

  5. Answer:

    ii , i and iii

    Solution:

    Mobility decreases with temperature , with temperature more electron-holes pairs generated so conductivity decreases
