Base Current in EDC Formulas

Base Current is the current flowing through the base terminal of a bipolar junction transistor. Base current is typically 1% of emitter or collector current for small signal transistors. And is denoted by I_b. Base Current is usually measured using the Milliampere for Electric Current. Note that the value of Base Current is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Base Current?

Base Current is the current flowing through the base terminal of a bipolar junction transistor. Base current is typically 1% of emitter or collector current for small signal transistors. Base Current is usually measured using the Milliampere for Electric Current. Note that the value of Base Current is always positive.

Can the Base Current be negative?

No, the Base Current, measured in Electric Current cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Base Current?

Base Current is usually measured using the Milliampere[mA] for Electric Current. Ampere[mA], Microampere[mA], Centiampere[mA] are the few other units in which Base Current can be measured.
