1. Fig. 1 shows that a silicon transistor with β = 100 is biased by base resistor method.
Draw the d.c. load line and determine the operating point. What is the stability factor?
Fig. 1
2. Design base resistor bias circuit for a CE amplifier such that operating point is
VCE = 8V and IC = 2 mA. You are supplied with a fixed 15V d.c. supply and a silicon
transistor with β = 100. Take base
base-emitter voltage VBE = 0.6V. Calculate
Calcu also the
value of load resistance that would be employed.
3. If for SILICON NPN transistor, the base to emitter voltage (ܸ )ܧܤis 0.7V and
collector to base voltage (ܸ )ܤܥis 0.2V then the transistor is operated in the
(a) Normal active mode (b) Saturation mode (c) Inverse active mode (d) Cut – off
mode.
4. Determine the Q-point and find the maximum peak value of the base current for linear
operation. Assume βDC = 200.
5. Determine VCE and IC in the voltage-divider biased transistor circuit. Assume βDC =
100 and IE ≈= IC.
