If the maximum collector current due to signal alone is 3 mA, then zero signal collector current should be at least equal to___________________?

Correct answer: C. 3 mA

  • A. 6 mA
  • B. mA
  • C. 3 mA
  • D. 1 mA

Explanation

To allow a 3 mA signal swing without driving the transistor into cutoff, the zero-signal collector current must be at least 3 mA. The Q-point should therefore be placed at or above the signal peak current.
