The collector current, lc, of a transistor is the amplified output current of a bipolar junction transistor. 
There are several ways to find the collector current, lc, of a transistor. And it all depends on what information is already known about the transistor: 
1st Way to Calculate Collector Current lc 
Using Known Values 
If the base current, 1b, and are known, then lc can be computed by the following formula: 
lc=ßlb 
Example 
If lb=36pa and $100, then lc calculates out to be: 
Ic=ßlb = 3.5ma 
2nd Way to Calculate Collector Current lc 
Using Known Values 
If the emitter current, la, and are known, then lc can be computed by the following formula: 
IE 
Example 
If le=4ma and $160, then the value of lc is computed to be: 
150 
IE— — (4ma)= 3.97ma 
151 
3rd Way to Calculate Collector Current lc 
Using Known Values 
If base current, 1b, and emitter current, la, are known, then lc can be calculated by the formula: 
lc=1E-1b 
Example 
If le=4ma and lb=30pa, then lc calculates out to be: 
Ic= IE -1b = 4ma - 30ga= 3.97ma

    • Disable voltage and current sources
    • Mid, High -> Short external capacitor
    • Replace BJT and MOSFET with small signal
    • Low, Mid -> Open internal capacitor
    • High -> Keep internal capacitor
