In the case of $NPN$ transistors,the collector current is always less than the emitter current because:

  • A
    Collector side is reverse biased and emitter side is forward biased
  • B
    After electrons are lost in the base,only the remaining ones reach the collector
  • C
    Collector side is forward biased and emitter side is reverse biased
  • D
    Collector being reverse biased attracts fewer electrons

In a $CE$ transistor, a change of $8.0 \,mA$ in the emitter current produces a change of $7.8 \,mA$ in the collector current. What change in the base current is necessary to produce the same change in the collector current (in $\mu A$)?

For a common base transistor,the current gain is $\alpha = 0.98$. To produce a change of $2 \ mA$ in the emitter current,the change in the base current must be ......... $mA$.

The current amplification factor and the collector current in a $CE$ transistor circuit are $100$ and $2.2 \text{ mA}$ respectively. Then the base current is (in $\mu A$)

In a common emitter amplifier,the input signal is applied across

The typical transfer characteristic of a transistor in $CE$ configuration is shown in the figure. $A$ load resistor of $2\,k\Omega$ is connected in the collector branch of the circuit used. The input resistance of the transistor is $0.50\,k\Omega$. The voltage gain of the transistor is:
