  • D
    $I_B=20$$\mu A$,$ I_C = 5mA$,$\;\;\beta $$=250$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$I_B=40$$\mu A$, $I_C = 5mA$,$\;\;\beta $$= 125$
c
Given $V_{B E}=0$ ;  $V_{C E}=0$

$\therefore \quad$ Collector current, $I_{C}=\frac{(20-0)}{4 \times 10^{3}}$

or $I_{C}=5 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{A}=5\, \mathrm{mA}$

Input voltage, $V_{i}=V_{B E}+I_{B} R_{B}$

or $\quad V_{i}=0+I_{B} R_{B}$     or       $20=I_{B} \times 500 \times 10^{3}$

$\therefore \quad I_{B}=\frac{20}{500 \times 10^{3}}=40\, \mu \mathrm{A}$

$\therefore $        Current gain, $\beta=\frac{I_{C}}{I_{B}}=\frac{5 \times 10^{-3}}{40 \times 10^{-6}}=125$

    $V_{BE}= +18.2 V , V_{BC}=  -3.45 $ and amplifier is working.
Answer
Correct option: B.
$V_{BE}= +20.7 V , V_{BC}= +3.75$ and amplifier is not working.
b
$\beta=100$

$I _{ B }=\frac{ I _{ C }}{\beta}$

$I _{ B }=15 \mu A$

$V _{ CC }= I _{ B } R _{ B }+ V _{ BE }$

$V _{ BE }=24-\left(15 \times 10^{-6} \times 220 \times 10^{3}\right)$

$V _{ BE }=20.7 V$

$V _{ BC }= I _{ C } R _{ L }- I _{ B } R _{ B }=7.05-3.3=3.75 V$

The given circuit has two ideal diodes connected as shown in the figure. The current flowing through the resistance $R_1$ will be.....$ A$
  • A
    $1.43$
  • B
    $3.13$
  • $2.5 $
  • D
    $10$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$2.5 $
c
          Diode $D_{1}$ is reverse biased so, it will block the current and diode $D_{2}$ is forward biased, so it will pass the current.

Hence, equivalent circuit becomes as shown in the figure.

Current in the circuit $=$ Current flowing through the resistance

$R_{1}=\frac{10}{2+2}=2.5 \mathrm{A}$

For $CE$ transistor amplifier, the audio signal voltage across the collector  resistance of $2 \,\,k\Omega$ is $4\,\, V.$ If the current amplification factor of the transistor is $100$ and the base resistance is $1  \,\,k\Omega$, then the input signal voltage is.......$mV$
  • A

Answer
Correct option: D.
$20$
d
$\text { Here, } R_{C}=2 \mathrm{k} \Omega=2000 \Omega, V_{0}=4 \mathrm{V}$

$\alpha=100, R_{B}=1 \mathrm{k} \Omega=1000 \Omega, V_{i}=?$

Voltage gain, $A=\beta \frac{R_{C}}{R_{B}}=100 \times \frac{2000}{1000}=200$

$ \text { Also, } A =\frac{V_{0}}{V_{i}} \text { or } V_{i}=\frac{V_{0}}{A}=\frac{4}{200} $

$=\frac{2}{100} \mathrm{V}=20 \mathrm{mV}$

A $npn$ transistor is connected in common emitter configuration in a given amplifier. A load resistance of $800 \,\,\Omega$ is connected in the collector circuit and the voltage drop across it is $0.8\,\, V.$ If the current amplification factor is $0.96$ and the input resistance of the circuit is $192 \,\,\Omega$, the voltage gain and the power gain of the amplifier will respectively be
  • A
    $3.69,3.84$
  • B
    $4,4$
  • C
    $4,3.69$
  • $4,3.84$
Answer
Correct option: D.
$4,3.84$
d
$\text { Here, } R_{0}=800 \Omega, R_{i}=192 \Omega$

current gain, $\beta=0.96$

Voltage gain $=$ Current gain $\times$ Resistance gain

                         $=0.96 \times \frac{800}{192}=4$

Power gain $=$ [Current gain ] $\times$ [ Voltage gain ]

                  $=0.96 \times 4=3.84$
