For good stabilsation in voltage divider bias, the current I1 flowing through R1 and R2 should be equal to or greater than_____________?

Correct answer: A. 10 IB

A. 10 IB
B. 3 IB
C. 2 IB
D. 4 IB

Explanation

For good voltage-divider bias stabilisation, the divider current I1 is commonly chosen as at least 10 times the base current IB. This makes the divider voltage relatively independent of transistor loading and beta variations.
