In a common emitter configuration with suitable bias, it is given that RL{R}_{L} is the load resistance and RBE{R}_{BE} is small-signal dynamic resistance (input side). Then, voltage gain, current gain and power gain are given, respectively, by: β\beta is current gain, IB{I}_{B}, IC{I}_{C} and IE{I}_{E} are respectively base, collector, and emitter currents.

Options

  1. AβRLRBE,ΔICΔIB,β2RLRBE\beta\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}, \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{C}}{\Delta{I}_{B}}, {\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}
  2. BβRLRBE,ΔIEΔIB,β2RLRBE\beta\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}, \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{E}}{\Delta{I}_{B}}, {\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}
  3. Cβ2RLRBE,ΔICΔIB,βRLRBE{\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}, \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{C}}{\Delta{I}_{B}}, \beta\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}
  4. Dβ2RLRBE,ΔICΔIE,β2RLRBE{\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}, \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{C}}{\Delta{I}_{E}}, {\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}

Correct answer

A. βRLRBE,ΔICΔIB,β2RLRBE\beta\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}, \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{C}}{\Delta{I}_{B}}, {\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}

Step-by-step solution

For a common emitter configuration, current gain, β=ΔICΔIB\beta = \dfrac{\Delta{I}_{C}}{\Delta{I}_{B}}. Voltage gain is the ratio of output voltage to the input voltage. It is given as, AV=ΔVCERBEΔIB=βRLRBE{A}_{V} = \dfrac{\Delta{V}_{CE}}{{R}_{BE}\Delta{I}_{B}} = \beta\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}} (Since from Ohm's law, RL=∆VCE∆IB{R}_{L} = \dfrac{∆ {V}_{CE}}{∆ {I}_{B}}). Power gain AP=βAV=β2RLRBE{A}_{P} = \beta{A}_{V} = {\beta}^{2}\dfrac{{R}_{L}}{{R}_{BE}}.
