For a CE-transistor amplifier, the audio signal voltage across the collector resistance of 2 k Ω is 2 V. If the current amplification factor of the transistor is 100, calculate (i) input signal voltage
(ii) base current. Given that the value of the base resistance is 1 kΩ.

Solution

(i) Given, 
Collector resistance, Rc = 2 kΩ
Audio signal voltage, Vo = 2 V
Current amplification factor, β = 100

Now, using the formula,

                       Av = βRCRB                        Av = 100× 20001000                            =200 

Output voltage, V Av × Vi 

 Vi = V0Av =2200=1100V = 0.01 V   
is the input signal voltage. 

(ii) Now, current amplification factor, β = ICIB

 Base current, IB = ICβ = V0Rc×1β 

                               = 22000 × 100 =1105A = 10-5A 
                  
                      IB = 10×10-6A = 10 μA.
