A: As base current increases the collector current increases to a point where any more base current will not increases the collector current at hat point the transistor is saturated whereby current may flow in both direction and the two diodes will essentially be in a parallel mode and the voltage drop from emitter to collector will reflect the status as a low voltage drop.

What is the difference between common base emitter transistor and common base transistor?

Common base transistor if the emitter is open current Ie=0 but a small collector current thus exist.this current is reversed biased collector to the base voltage it is represented by Icbo while common emitter is d base terminal is open circuit and the base junction is reversed biased current Icbo flow from the tcollector to the emitter in the external circuit this current is called leakage current.

What do you mean by common emitter configuration and biasing pnp transistors?

A common emitter BJT transistor has the emitter ground. So u measure input voltage at base with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter and also u measure the output voltage at collector with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter. Hence, the emitter is common and thus the name.


How does using a transistor with a different beta affect the operation of the common emitter amplifier?

Gain, in the common emitter amplifier, is beta (hFe) or collector resistance divided by emitter resistance, whichever is less. Substituting a different beta (hFe) transistor will affect gain, if hFe is less, or increase stability and design margin, if hFe is greater.
