Transistor as a Switch in Cutoff and Saturation

1a) I'd say both are correct. At any voltage Vbe < Vth the transistor will "cut off", where by "cut off" we mean "the current drops to a super-low value, and gets even lower as Vbe drops further". It' …

How to made a Tri State Switch?

(This is more of a comment than an answer, but the URL has more characters than a comment will allow.) The second circuit works just fine if V2 is limited to 0V - 4V. See this CircuitJS simulation he …
