MCQ (Single Correct Answer)
A transistor is operated in common emitter configuration at VC = 2 V such that a change in the base current from 100 $$\mu $$A to 300 $$\mu $$A produces a change in the collector current from 10 mA to 20 mA. The current gain is
A
50
B
75
C
100
D
25
Explanation
Current gain, $$\beta $$ = $${{\Delta {I_C}} \over {\Delta {I_B}}}$$
A Zener diode, having breakdown voltage equal to 15 V, is used in a voltage regulator circuit shown in figure. The current through the diode is
A
5 mA
B
10 mA
C
15 mA
D
20 mA
Explanation
Voltage across 250 Ω resistance
= 20 V – 15 V = 5 V
Now current through 250 $$\Omega $$ resistance:
5/250 = 20 mA
If voltage across load resistance 1 k$$\Omega $$ is 15 V, then
current through 1 kΩ is 15/1000 = 15 mA
The current through the zener diode is
= Current through 250 $$\Omega $$ resistance
– Current through 1 k$$\Omega $$ resistance.
= 20 - 15
= 5 mA

MCQ (Single Correct Answer)
If a small amount of antimony is added to germanium crystal
A
it becomes a p-type semiconductor
B
the antimony becomes an acceptor atom
C
there will be more free electrons than holes in the semiconductor
D
its resistance is increased
Explanation
If a small amount of antimony is added to
germanium crystal, crystal becomes n-type semiconductor. Hence, there will be more free electrons
than holes.
