Common Base Current Gain (α) Calculator

Common Base Current Gain (α) Calculator

Calculate the common base current gain using the equation:
\[ \alpha = \frac{I_C}{I_E} \] where \(I_C\) is the collector current and \(I_E\) is the emitter current.

* Enter the currents in amperes (A).

Step 1: Enter Parameters

Example: 0.09 A

Example: 0.10 A

Formula: \( \alpha = \frac{I_C}{I_E} \)


Practical Example:
If the collector current \( I_C \) is 0.09 A and the emitter current \( I_E \) is 0.10 A, then:
\[ \alpha = \frac{0.09}{0.10} = 0.9 \quad (90\%) \]
