Question

What is /are the purpose/s of adopting stabilization and compensation techniques?

(a) To provide maximum bias

(b) To provide thermal stabilization

(c) To provide maximum bias & thermal stabilization

(d) To provide minimum bias

I have been asked this question in quiz.

The origin of the question is Thermistor and Sensistor Compensation topic in section Transistor Biasing and Thermal Stabilization of Electronic Devices & Circuits

Answer 1

Correct choice is (c) To provide maximum bias & thermal stabilization

Easiest explanation: In some of the negative feedback circuits, the amplification level of AC signals gets ablated rapidly. Since it becomes complicated for the circuits to abide the loss of signals, it is essential to condense the drift in an operating point by means of compensation and stabilization. Compensation techniques comprise diode compensation, bias compensation using thermistor, sensistor & so on. They play a major role in given that maximum bias in addition to the thermal stabilization to the circuits.
