The formula to calculate the Transistor Base Current (Ib) is:
\[ Ib = \frac{Vb - Vbe}{Rb} \]
Where:
The transistor base current is the current flowing into the base of a transistor. It is calculated by subtracting the base-emitter volt drop from the base bias voltage, then dividing by the base input resistor.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula to calculate the Transistor Base Current (Ib):
\[ Ib = \frac{5 - 0.7}{1000} = 0.0043 \]
The Transistor Base Current (Ib) is 0.0043 A or 4.3 mA.
