A transistor is connected in common emitter configuration. The collector supply is 8 V and the voltage drop across a resistor of 800 Ω in the collector circuit is 0.5 V. If the current gain factor α is 0.96, the base current is

  1. A 2.6×105A
  2. B 3.6×105A
  3. C 5.6×105A
  4. D 6.6×105A
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 2.6×105A

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

For a common emitter configuration, collector current is IC IC=0.5800=0.625×10-3 A ; α=ICIE Now, IB=IE-IC IB=ICα-IC=IC1α-1 IB=26×10-6 A
