Question:

The current gain of a transistor in common – emitter mode is 49. The change in collector current and emitter current corresponding to the change in base current by 5.0 μA will be:

Options:

245 μA, 250 μA

240 μA, 235 μA

260 μA, 255 μA

none of these

Correct Answer:

245 μA, 250 μA

Explanation:

Here, $β = 49, ΔI_B = 5.0μA$

$∴ ΔI_C = βΔI_B = 49×5.0μA = 245μA$

$ΔI_E = ΔI_B + ΔI_C = 5.0μA+ 245μA = 250μA$
