In the PMMC type instrument, the deflection is directly proportional to the current flowing through the instrument, we get a uniform scale for the instrument. It gives a uniform scale of upto 270° or more. Td ∝ I
The emitter current (IE) of a transistor has two components such as base current (IB) and collector current (IC). The base current (IB) is about 2% of the emitter current (IE), but the collector current (Ia) is about 98% of the emitter current (IE). ∴ IE > IC > IB IE = IB + IC
