For a transistor the current amplification factor is 0.8 . If the transistor is now in common emitter configuration , the change in collector current when the base current changes by 6 mA is :

A

6 mA

B

4.8 mA

C

24 mA

D

8 mA

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

As `alpha = 0.8 and beta = alpha/(1-alpha) =(0.8)/(1-0.8)=4`
`(DeltaI_c)/(DeltaI_b) = 4 " or "DeltaI_c=4xx6 mA = 24 mA`
