THEORY
Transistor characteristics are the curves, which represent relationship
between different dc currents and voltages of a transistor. These are helpful
in studying the operation of a transistor when connected in a circuit. The
three important characteristics of a transistor are:
1.
Input characteristic.
2.
Output characteristic.
3.
Constant current transfer characteristic.
Input Characteristic :
In common collector configuration, it is the curve plotted between the input
current (IB) verses input voltage (VBC) for various constant values of output
voltage (VEC).
This characteristic reveals that for fixed value of output voltage VEC, It is
quite different from CB and CE configuration. This different is due to the
fact that input voltage VBC is largely determined by the value of VEC. As the
base to collector voltage increases, VBE is reduced thereby reducing IB. The
approximated plot for input characteristic is shown in fig. 1.

Output Characteristic :
This is the curve plotted between the output current IE verses output voltage
VCE for various constant values of input current IB.
The output characteristic has three basic region of interest as indicated in
fig.2 the active region, cutoff region and saturation region.
In active region the collector base junction is reverse biased while the base
emitter junction is forward biased. This region is normally employed for
linear (undistorted) amplifier.
In cutoff region the collector base junction and base emitter junction of the
transistor both are reverse biased. In this region transistor acts as an OFF
switch.
In saturation region the collector base junction and base emitter junction of
the transistor both are forward biased. In this region transistor acts as an ON
switch.

Constant current transfer Characteristic :

current IB for constant value of output voltage VCE.
The approximated plot for this characteristic is shown in Fig 3.

Calculations :
1.
Input resistance: It is the ratio of change in the input voltage VBC to
change in the input current IB at constant value of output voltage VEC
or it is the reciprocal of the slope obtained from the input
characteristic.
Mathematically
To calculate input resistance determine the slope from the input
characteristic curve obtained from observation Table 1. Reciprocal of
this slope will give the required input resistance.
2.
Output resistance: It is the ratio of change in the output voltage VEC
to change in the output current IE at constant value of input current IB
or it is the reciprocal of the slope obtained from the output
characteristic.
Mathematically
To calculate output resistance determine the slope from the output
characteristic curve obtained from observation Table 2. Reciprocal of
this slope will give the required output resistance.
3.
Current gain: It is the ratio of change in the output current I E to
change in the input current IB at constant value of output voltage VEC
or it is the slope obtained from the constant current transfer
characteristic. It is denoted by αac
