MCQ Practice Question

For a BJT operating in the active region, the collector current is approximately related to base current by?

  • AIC = IB/beta
  • BIC = beta IB
  • CIC = IB + beta
  • DIC = beta/IB
Report an error
Correct Answer: B. IC = beta IB
Explanation: The common-emitter current gain beta is defined approximately as IC/IB in the active region, hence IC = beta IB.
