Current in Transistor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Emitter Current = Base Current+Collector Current
Ie = IB+Ic
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Emitter Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Emitter Current is the amplified output current of a bipolar junction transistor.
Base Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Base Current is a crucial current of bipolar junction transistor. Without the base current, the transistor cannot turn on.
Collector Current - (Measured in Ampere) - Collector Current is an amplified output current of a bipolar junction transistor.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Base Current: 50 Ampere --> 50 Ampere No Conversion Required
Collector Current: 100 Ampere --> 100 Ampere No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Ie = IB+Ic --> 50+100
Evaluating ... ...
