In a transistor output characteristicy commonly used in common emitter configuration, the base current \(I_{B}\), the collector current \(I_{C}\) and the collector-emitter voltage \(V_{C E}\) have values of the following orders of magnitude in the active region

  1. A \(I_{B}\) and \(I_C\) both are in \(\mu \mathrm{A}\) and \(V_{C E}\) in volt
  2. B \(I_{B}\) is in \(\mathrm{\mu A}\) and \(\mathrm{I_C}\) is in \(\mathrm{mA}\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{CE}}\) in volt
  3. C \(I_{B}\) is in \(\mathrm{mA}\) and \(I_C\) is in \(\mu \mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{C E}\) in \(\mathrm{mV}\)
  4. D \(I_{B}\) is in \(\mathrm{mA}\) and \(I_C\) is in \(\mathrm{m} \mathrm{A}\) and \(\mathrm{V}_{C E}\) in \(\mathrm{mV}\)
