Hi
I am trying to measure the β value (forward gain current) for a NPN transistor on a Breadboard circuit
I have the following circuit as a hint :
The Vcc is through a constant known voltage using a function generator and the resistor value is known. However, the transistor parameters is unknown (data sheet cannot be used) but it can be assumed to be in forward active mode with VBEon > VCEsat
I made a KVL loop Vcc - Ie*R-VBEon = 0.
How do i find the β value for the transistor without being allowed to measure the currents directly ?
Thanks!
