Question

A transistor is used in common-emitter mode in an amplifier circuit. When a signal of 20 mV is added to the base emitter voltage, the base current changes by 20 μA and the collector current changes by 2mA. The load resistance is 5kΩ. The trans conductance and the voltage gain are

Solution

The correct option is A 0.1 mho, 500
Transistor conductance = ΔlCΔVBE
=2mA20mA=0.1mho

The change in output voltage is RL, ΔlC=(5kΩ)(2mA)=10V

The applied signal voltage = 20 mV
Thus, the voltage gain is 10V20mV=500
