From the given transfer characteristic of a transistor in CECE configuration, the value of power gain of this configuration is 10x{10}^{x}, for RB=10kΩ{R}_{B} = 10kΩ, and RC=1kΩ{R}_{C} = 1kΩ. The value of xx is _____.

From the given transfer characteristic of a transistor in CE configuration, the value of power gain of this

Options

  1. A3
  2. B4
  3. C5
  4. D6

Correct answer

A. 3

Step-by-step solution

The formula to calculate the current gain (β)\left(\beta\right) in CE configuration is given by

β=∆IC∆IB...(1)\beta = \dfrac{∆ {I}_{C}}{∆ {I}_{B}} . . . \left(1\right)

Considering the third and the first points on the given graph, the current gain can be calculated as follows:

{β=(30−10)×10−3A(300−100)×10−6A=100\begin{cases}\beta & = & \dfrac{\left(30 - 10\right) \times {10}^{- 3}A}{\left(300 - 100\right) \times {10}^{- 6}A} \\ & = & 100\end{cases}
