    Early effect in BJT refers to
    Question

    Early effect in BJT refers to

    A.

    Avalanche breakdown

    B.

    Thermal Runaway

    C.

    Base narrowing

    D.

    Zener breakdown

    Correct option is C


    The Early effect in a BJT refers to "Base narrowing". 
    Explanation: The Early effect occurs when a large reverse bias voltage is applied to the collector-base junction, causing the depletion region to extend further into the base region, effectively narrowing the base width and increasing the collector current. 
    Key points about the Early effect:
    · Cause: High reverse bias on the collector-base junction.
    · Result: Reduced effective base width.
    · Impact on current: Increases the collector current.
