🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between in-circuit and out-of-circuit testing of components • How current paths through surrounding circuitry can affect resistance and continuity readings • Which meters apply a small DC voltage/current that might forward- or reverse-bias a transistor junction

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: if the transistor is still wired into a circuit, what kind of meter reading could be distorted by parallel paths through other components? • Consider which instruments are designed specifically to check semiconductor junctions without needing to remove them from the circuit. • Think about which meter function is most commonly used to check diode/transistor junctions for forward and reverse conduction.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which instrument mode applies a small test voltage and observes change in conduction (forward vs reverse) through a junction. • Check which option is typically not reliable in-circuit because other circuit paths change the resistance reading. • Confirm which tool is made specifically for testing transistors, especially in-circuit.
