Q1. Calculate IE and VCE for the circuit in Figure below using
the approximations VE = -1 V and IC = IE.
Q2. Determine how much the Q-point (IC, VCE) for the circuit in
Figure below will change over a temperature range where DC
increases from 100 to 200.
Q3. The base-bias circuit from Example (2) is converted to
emitter-feedback bias by the addition of 1K a emitter resistor.
All other values are the same, and a transistor with a DC= 100
is used. Determine how much the Q-point will change if the first
transistor is replaced with one having a DC= 200. Compare the
results to those of the base-bias circuit
Amplifier operation
The biasing of a transistor is purely a dc operation. The
purpose of biasing is to establish a Q-point about which
variations in current and voltage can occur in response
to an ac input signal.
Rc = collector resistance
RC = dc collector resistance (all capital letters)
rc = ac collector resistance (all small letters)
Linear Amplifire
A linear amplifier provides amplification of a signal without
any distortion so that the output signal is an exact amplified
replica of the input signal
Q3. For the system below, determine the level of input impedance
The output impedance is:
Common Emitter (CE) amplifiers exhibit high voltage gain and high current gain
The voltage gain of a Common Collector (CC) amplifier (which also called
Emitter follower) is approximately 1, and its main advantages are its high
input resistance and current gain.
The common-base (CB) amplifier provides high voltage gain with a maximum
current gain of 1.
