9.
The figure shown below is designed to act as a constant current source across the load resistor. The β of transistor is 50. What is the value of load current?
1.96 mA
2 mA
2.04 mA
None
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Voltage at base = 12 - 5 = 7 v

Voltage at emitter = 7 + 0.7 = 7.7 v

Current through R1 = 2 mA

Thus current through load = = 1.96 mA.
