Hi , I am using a digital multimeter to measure hfe for transistors , but what i noticed was that the hfe value displayed was different when i used a different battery for the multimeter. The older the battery was , the less value for hfe is dislayed. e.g i tried to measure hfe for a certain bjt (BC 548). It gave the value 170 for hfe with old battery. when i used a newer battery it gave 220 for hfe. so what value should i consider in the design?
thanks
thanks
