What does it mean for a bias design to be beta-independent?

  • A.Its stability factor has been reduced to the theoretical minimum
  • B.Its operating point follows resistor values alone
  • C.Its current gain has been measured and allowed for in the calculation
  • D.Its devices have been selected to fall within a narrow gain band

Answer: B

Beta independence means the expression for the operating point contains only voltages and resistances, so any device in the family gives the same result. Measuring and allowing for beta, or selecting devices, are both ways of coping with dependence rather than removing it, and a low stability factor is a related consequence. A design property that survives changing the device is worth far more than one that has been tuned around a particular sample.
