Base collector voltage problem

Click For Summary

Homework Help Overview

The discussion revolves around the behavior of transistor operation in active mode, specifically focusing on the relationship between collector current and base collector voltage. The original poster seeks justification for the assumption that collector current is independent of base collector reverse bias while being slightly dependent on base collector voltage.

Discussion Character

  • Conceptual clarification, Assumption checking

Approaches and Questions Raised

  • Participants explore the implications of the collector current's dependence on base collector voltage and question the original poster's phrasing regarding the collector's behavior. There is also a mention of examining current vs voltage characteristics of a diode as a related concept.

Discussion Status

The discussion is ongoing, with participants seeking clarification on the original poster's statements and exploring related concepts. Some guidance has been offered regarding the characteristics of diodes, but no consensus has been reached on the main question posed.

Contextual Notes

The original poster has repeated their query multiple times, indicating a desire for deeper understanding. There are also unrelated questions about De-Morgan's Law, suggesting a mix of topics in the thread.

Please justify this phenomenon:

In an active mode for a transistor, ideally it is assumed that collector current is independent of the base collector reverse bias, whereas, the collector is slightly dependent on the base collector voltage.

Thanks

The collector what?

Btw what's the importance of De-Morgan's Law in digital studies?

Is it because it simplifies the logic ?
or there's some other reason behind it.

Please reply to both of my queries.

Thanks again

Look at the current vs voltage characteristics of a diode

It's just because it simplifies the logic, which might lead to fewer circuit elements to achieve the desired effect.
 
ok thanks a lot !
