Junction Transistor

In an n-p-n transistor, the collector current is 28 mA28\text{ mA}. If 80%80\% of electrons reach the collector, its base current in mA\text{mA} is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (d)

  1. IE=IC0.8=280.8=35I_E = \dfrac{I_C}{0.8} = \dfrac{28}{0.8} = 35 mA.
  2. IB=IE−IC=35−28=7I_B = I_E - I_C = 35 - 28 = 7 mA.
  3. So the answer is (d) 7.
