Define current gain `alpha` and `beta` for a transistor. How are they mutually related ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To define the current gain `alpha` and `beta` for a transistor and explain their mutual relationship, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Define Current Gain Alpha (α) Current gain alpha (α) is defined as the ratio of the collector current (I_C) to the emitter current (I_E) in a transistor, while keeping the collector voltage constant. Mathematically, it can be expressed as: \[ \alpha = \frac{I_C}{I_E} \] ...
