The output characteristics of a transistor is shown in the figure. When V _ CE is 10V and I _ C = 4 .0 mA , then value

Correct answer

150

Step-by-step solution

From the formula of current gain, β=(ΔiCΔiB)VCE=10\beta = {\left(\dfrac{{\Delta i}_{C}}{{\Delta i}_{B}}\right)}_{{V}_{CE} = 10}

ΔiC=(4.5−3)mA{\Delta i}_{C} = \left(4 . 5 - 3\right)mA

⇒ΔiC=1.5mA⇒ {\Delta i}_{C} = 1 . 5mA

⇒ΔiC=1.5×10−3A⇒ {\Delta i}_{C} = 1 . 5 \times {10}^{- 3}A

ΔiB=(30−20)μA{\Delta i}_{B} = \left(30 - 20\right)\mu A

⇒ΔiB=10μA⇒ {\Delta i}_{B} = 10\mu A

⇒ΔiB=10×10−6A⇒ {\Delta i}_{B} = 10 \times {10}^{- 6}A

⇒ΔiB=10−5A⇒ {\Delta i}_{B} = {10}^{- 5}A

⇒β=(ΔiCΔiB)VCE=10=(1.5×10−310−5)⇒ \beta = {\left(\dfrac{{\Delta i}_{C}}{{\Delta i}_{B}}\right)}_{{V}_{CE} = 10} = \left(\dfrac{1 . 5 \times {10}^{- 3}}{{10}^{- 5}}\right)

⇒β=(1.5×10−3×105)⇒ \beta = \left(1 . 5 \times {10}^{- 3} \times {10}^{5}\right)

⇒β=150⇒ \beta = 150
