Summarize the results for testing an NPN transistor with a DMM.

What will be an ideal response?


Transistor testing using the diode setting and meter leads requires six checks. The results on the DMM should be:
1) Positive on emitter and negative on base—display should be infinite or OL.
2) Positive on emitter and negative on collector—display should be infinite or OL.
3) Positive on base and negative on emitter—display should be @ .6 to .7 [volts].
4) Positive on base and negative on collector—display should be @ .6 to .7 [volts].
5) Positive on collector and negative on emitter—display should be infinite or OL.
6) Positive on collector and negative on base—display should be infinite or OL.
