Question

In an n-p-n transistor, 1010 electrons enter the emitter in 10–6 s. 2% of the electrons are lost in the base. Calculate the current transfer ratio and the current amplification factor. Charge on electron is .

Solution

Correct option is

0.98, 49

 

The current is rate of flow of change (q/t). Since 1010 electrons enter the emitter in 10–6 s, the emitter-current is

        

            

            = 1.6 mA

Similarly, the base-current is 

       

           

           = 0.032 mA.

In transistor, the emitter current  is the sum of the base current  and the collector current 

  

            = 1.6 mA – 0.032 mA     

            = 1.568 mA.

The current transfer ratio is 

        

            = 0.98. 

The current amplification factor is 

          

            = 49.
