Question
In the CB mode of a transistor, when the collector voltage is changed by 0.5 volt, the collector current changes by 0.05 mA. The output resistance will be
10 kΩ
20 kΩ
5 kΩ
2.5 kΩ
Solution
A.
10 kΩ
Here: ΔVc = 0.5 volt
ΔIc =0.05 mA=0.05×10-3
Output resistance is defined as the ratio of change in output voltage or collector voltage (VCB) to the corresponding change in output current or collector current (IC), with the input current or emitter current (IE) kept at constant.
