Questions
Statement I: A transistor amplifier in common emitter configuration has a low input impedance.
Statement II: The base to emitter region is forward biased.
detailed solution
Correct option is B
In transistor, the emitter-base junction is forward bias while the base-collector junction is given a large reverse bias. Under forward bias the charge carriers move towards base causing the flow of current. The following figure shows the circuit of a common-emitter amplifier circuit using an n-p-n transistor. The input (base-emitter) circuit is forward biased by a low voltage battery VBE, so that the resistance of the input circuit is small.The output (collector-emitter) circuit is reverse biased by means of a high voltage battery so that resistance of output is high. The weak input AC signal is applied across the base-emitter circuit and the amplified output signal is obtained across the collector--emitter circuit. Input impedance of common-emitter configuration =∆VBE∆IBVCE=ConstantHere, ∆VBE= voltage across base and emitter ∆IB= base current of the order of few micro ampere.Talk to our academic expert!
