The biasing circuit has a stability factor of 50. If due to temperature change, ICBO changes by 1 µA, then IC will change by___________________?
Correct answer: D. 50 µA
- A. 100 µA
- B. 25 µA
- C. 20 µA
- D. 50 µA
Explanation
The stability factor relates the collector-current change to the leakage-current change: S = ΔIC/ΔICBO. Therefore, ΔIC = 50 × 1 μA = 50 μA.
