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.
