CE Input and Output Characteristics

The document describes the common emitter (CE) configuration circuit diagram. It shows an npn transistor and pnp transistor connected in CE configuration. It explains that in CE configuration, the input is applied between the base and emitter, while the output is taken from the collector and emitter. It also discusses the input characteristics, where the input base current (IB) varies with input base-emitter voltage (VBE) for different output collector-emitter voltages (VCE). The output characteristics show the output collector current (IC) varying with output VCE for different input IB values. In CE configuration, there is a 180 degree phase reversal between the input and output.

CE configuration Circuit diagram

• In this configuration input is applied between base and


emitter and output is taken from collector and emitter.
• Common emitter npn transistor and common base pnp
transistor as shown in below figure.

Forward transistor characteristics
• The complete behavior of a transistor can be
described by stating the inter-relation of the
various currents and voltages.
• Input Characteristics: An input current (IB) is a
function of an input voltage (VBE) for various
values of output voltage(VCE)
• Input characteristics are also referred as base
(or) static characteristics.

• When VCE=0V emitter-base junction is forward
biased so the input characteristic is similar to
the forward biased diode characteristics.
• When VCE is increased the width of the
depletion region at the reverse biased
collector-base junction increases then
effective base width reduces Weff so base
current IB decreases.

• Hence to get the same value of IB as that for
VCE=0v , VBE should be increased.
• So the curve shifts to the right as VCE
increases

Important points to remember

In CE configuration, a positive input produces a negative


output and hence input and output are out of phase. So,
there is 1800 phase reversal between input and output
in a CE amplifier.
