Define current gain in common base and common emitter amplifier and find the relation between them.

Answer»

Solution :Current gain `alpha` is defined as the RATIO of collector current to the emitter current at constant collector VOLTAGE.
Current gain `BETA` is defined as the ratio of the collector current to the base current at constant collector voltage.
i.e. `beta=((I_(c))/(I_(B)))_(E_(ie))`
Relation between `alpha` and `beta`.
For n-p-n and p-n-p transistor, we have
`I_(e)=I_(b)+I_(c)`
or `(I_(e))/(I_(c))=(I_(e))/(I_(c))+1`......`(i)`
Since current gain of common emitter amlifier,
`alpha=(I_(c))/(I_(e))`
And current gain of common base amplifier,
`beta=(I_(c))/(I_(b))`
So Eq. `(i)` becomes
`(1)/(alpha)=(1)/(beta)+1`
or `(1)/(beta)=(1)/(alpha)-1`
or `beta=(alpha)/(1-alpha)`
