The current that flows when a transistor is cut off is called
A) bias current.
B) leakage current.
C) depletion current.
D) base -emitter current.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Leakage current is the small amount of current that flows when a transistor is in the off state (cut-off region), despite it ideally being zero. This occurs due to the imperfections in the semiconductor material.
