  21. If the effective width of the base decreases: – 1. There will be less recombination in the base, so α (and hence β) will increase. β = α / (1- α)

  22. If the effective width of the base decreases: – • 2. The minority carrier concentration gradient (Δn/Δx) will increase: • so |IE| will increase. |IE|  Δn/Δx (Δx is the basewidth) n p n emitter base collector |IE| Electron concentration Δn Δx

  28. IE IC e c Early effect implies α and |IE| increases as VCB increases, hence IC (≈ αIE )increases VBE b IC(VCB) VCB IB IC / mA Active region IC≈ αIE IE = 1.0 mA 1 0.75 0.5 0.25 IE = 0.75 mA Breakdown region IE = 0.50 mA Saturation region IE = 0.25 mA ICBO Cutoff region IE = 0 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 VCB / V Common-base output characteristics

  29. As VCE increases, VCB increases. Early effect implies α, and hence β, increases as VCB increases.

  32. Summary • CB output characteristics are plots of IC vs. VCB: • IC = ICBO for IE = 0 • IC≈ IE in flat regions • IC 0 as VCB goes negative • IC increases at large values of VCB due to breakdown at the reverse-biased c-b junction

  33. Common-emitter configuration • Input characteristics (IB vs. VBE) resemble that for a forward-biased diode but depend on output voltage VCE due to Early effect

  34. Output characteristics are plots of IC vs. VCE for different values of the input current IB: • IC = ICEO for IB = 0 • IC>> IB in flat regions due to current amplification • IC increases at large values of VCE due to breakdown at the reverse-biased c-b junction

  35. Common-collector configuration • Input characteristics (IB vs. VCB) • VCB = VCE – VBE hence: • If transistor is “on” VCB is fixed at VCE – 0.7V • As VCB VCE device turns off, IB  0

  36. Output characteristics are plots of IE vs. VCE for different values of IB • Since IE≈ IC, CC output characteristics are essentially the same as those for CE • THE EARLY EFFECT, OR BASE-WIDTH MODULATION
