Click For Summary
The multivibrator operates by utilizing a common base configuration where the input signal is applied to the emitter of the transistor. When a negative pulse arrives at the emitter, it causes the emitter voltage to drop below the base voltage, resulting in the transistor being forward biased. This forward bias allows current to flow through the transistor, enabling it to turn on. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding the biasing conditions for proper operation of the multivibrator. Overall, the behavior of the transistor in response to input pulses is crucial for its functionality.

How ths multivibrator works? I can't understand.Because its pulse not given to base of transistor.

The transistor is in the common base configuration. In this configuration, the input is at the emmiter.
 


so what happened to the transistor when a pulse is comming.if it turn on ?(revers bias or forword bias)

When a negative pulse arrives at the emitter, its voltage is lower than the base voltage, so the transistor is forward biased.
