Recently I was wondering why UCE can be smaller than UBE. I've drawn a small diagram with the typical values of the BC547 NPN transistor.
This amazes me all the more as UBE shares its PN-regions with UCE.
Can someone shed some light on this "miracle"?
Best Answer
You are missing one value in your picture. Voltage between base and collector (Vbc, which is actually opposite to Vce).

Do you already see that there is no miracle?
Even without deep knowledge of PN junctions, just elementary circuit laws (like Kirchhoff's Laws).
Vce=Vbe-Vbc
