What is Collector Base Connection (CB Configuration)? - Definition
![](https://circuitglobe.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/common-base-connection-npn-transistor.jpg)
The configuration in which the base of the transistor is common between emitter and collector circuit is called a common base configuration. The common base circuit arrangement for NPN and PNP transistor is shown in the figure below. In common base-emitter connection, the input is connected between emitter and base while the output is taken across collector and base.
