In common emitter amplifier, the current gain is $62$.The collector resistance and input resistance are $5\ k$$\Omega$ an $500$ $\Omega$ respectively. If the input voltage is $0.01\ V$, the output voltage is

  1. $0.62\ V$
  2. $6.2\ V$
  3. $62\ V$
  4. $620\ V$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$\displaystyle \dfrac{V _0}{V _m} = \dfrac{R _0}{R _{in}} \times \beta = \dfrac{5 \times 10^3 \times 62}{500} = 10 \times 62 = 620$

$V _0 = 620 \times V _{in} = 620 \times 0.01 = 6.2\ V$

$\therefore V _0$ = $6.2\ V$

The current gain $\beta$-may be defined as

  1. the ratio of change in collector current to the change in emitter current for a constant collector voltage in a common base arrangement

  2. the ratio of change in collector current to the change in base current at constant collector voltage in a common emitter circuit

  3. the ratio of change in emitter current to the change in base current for constant emitter voltage in common emitter circuit

  4. the ratio of change in base current to the change in collector current in constant collector voltage in common emitter circuit
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

By definition, current gain  $\beta$ is defined as the ratio of change in collector current to change in base current for a constant collector voltage in a common emitter circuit.

$\beta =  \dfrac{\Delta i _C}{\Delta i _B}$   or simply    $\beta = \dfrac{I _C}{I _B}$
Generally,  $\beta$ has value between  $20$ and  $200.$

A transistor based radio receiver set $($effective resistance of the order of $18$ $ohms$$)$ operates on a $9V$ dc battery. If this replaced by a dc power supply with rating $9V$, $500V$ then

  1. Receiver will work normally

  2. Receiver will give distorted output

  3. Receiver will get burnt

  4. Power supply will get over heated
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Answer is A.

In this case, the 9 V battery is replaced with a 9 V power supply. Here, there is no change in the power supply to the radio receiver.
Hence, the receiver will work fine as the voltage supply or power supply remains the same.

The current gain for a transistor working as common base amplifier is $0.96$. lf the emitter current is $7.2 mA$, the base current will be :

  1. $0.42 mA$
  2. $0.49 mA$
  3. $0.29 mA$
  4. $0.35 mA$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Here, $\displaystyle \alpha =0.96,{ I } _{ e }=7.2mA$
$\displaystyle \frac { { I } _{ c } }{ { I } _{ e } } =0.96$
$\displaystyle { I } _{ c }={ I } _{ e }\times 0.96=7.2\times 0.96=6.912mA$
Now,
$\displaystyle { I } _{ b }={ I } _{ c }-{ I } _{ c }=.2-6.912=0.29mA$

For a common emitter circuit if $I _C$ / $I _E$ =0.98 then current gain for common emitter circuit will be

  1. 4.9

  2. 98

  3. 49

  4. 9.8
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Given that $\frac{I _{c}}{I _{e}}=0.98$

$\Rightarrow I _{c}=0.98I _{e}$
So we get $I _{b}=I _{e}-I _{c}=0.02I _{e}$
Therefore the current gain is $\frac{I _{c}}{I _{b}}=\frac{0.98}{0.02}=49$
Therefore the correct option is $C$.

In a p-n-p transistor, working as a common base amplifier, current gain is 0.96 and emitter current is 7.2mA. The base current is

  1. 0.20 mA

  2. 0.36 mA

  3. 0.29 mA

  4. 0.45 mA
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

Current gain $=\dfrac{I _{C}}{I _{B}}$
$I _{C}$ = collector current
$I _{B}$ = base current
So, $I _{B}=\dfrac{I _{C}}{current\, gain}= \dfrac{7.2\, mA}{0.96}=7.5\, mA$
As $I _{E}=I _{B}+I _{C}$
So, $I _{B}=I _{E}-I _{C}$
$=(7.5-7.2)\, mA=0.3\, mA$
$\approx 0.29\,mA$

A transistor is operated in common emitter configuration at $V _c=2V$ such that a change in the base current from $100\mu A$ to $300\mu A$ produces a change in the collector current from 10mA to 20mA. The current gain is

  1. $50$
  2. $75$
  3. $100$
  4. $25$
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The base current changes from $100\mu A$ to $300 \mu A$ and produces a change in the collector current from $10mA$ to $20mA$

The change in collector current is $10mA$
The change in base current is $200\mu A$
The current gain is $\frac{10000}{200}=50$
Therefore option $C$ is correct.
