Fig. 1 Fig. 2
Ans.
· Figure 1
With bias voltages in the circuit, we find both JE and JC under reverse bias
Þ BJT is OFF Þ IE = IC = IB = 0
Since (if the potential at terminal B is selected as ground potential):
VCE = VC – VE = 10V – 15V = –5V
and
VBC = –10V
· Figure 2
With bias voltages in the circuit, we find JE under forward bias and JC under reverse bias
Þ BJT in forward active region Þ IE = (20V – 0.7V)/39KW = 0.495 mA
if the potential at terminal B is selected as ground potential, we have
VE = 0.7V
and
VC = –20V + 20KW x IC » –20V + 20KW x IE = –20V + 20KW x 0.495mA = –10.1V
Therefore:
VEC = VE – VC = 0.7V – (–10.1V) = 10.8V
VCB = VC–VB = VC = –10.1V
4. Find the emitter efficiency ge, the base transport factor B and the common emitter current gain b of npn-
BJT with given parameters: NDE = 1x1018cm–3, NAB = 1x1016cm–3, Dn = Dp, WB = 100nm, và Lp= Ln = 1µm.
Ans.
a) The emiiter efficiency ge
From theory, we have
I EP p D W
g e » 1- = 1 - e0 E B
I EN nb 0 DB LE
where pe0 = ni2/NDE ; nb0 = ni2/NAB
DE = diffusion coefficient of minority carriers at emiiter region = Dp
DB = diffusion coefficient of minority carriers at base region = Dn
LE = diffusion length of minority carriers at emitter region = Lp
b) The value range of RC for BJT in saturation mode (LED is ON) when RB = 1 KW.
· First method: Consider 0 £ VCE £ VCEsat = 0.2V
We have: VCE = VCC – RCILED – VLED or 0 £ VCC – RCILED – VLED £ VCEsat = 0.2V
Therefore (VCC –VLED –VCEsat)/ILED £ RC £ (VCC –VLED)/ILED
(5V –1.5 –0.2)/20mA £ RC £ (5V –1.5V)/20mA
165 W £ RC £ 175 W
v Remarks:
· Second method give more exact solutions because VCEsat of 0.2V is the typical value
but in practice VCEsat has various values with specific BJTs.
· In practice, JC in forward bias with VBC of 0.7V.
c) The value range of RC for BJT in forward active mode (LED is ON) when RB = 1 KW
In forward active mode, JC in reverse bias, i.e.VBC < 0 or VB < VC
We have: VB = VBE = 0.7V and VC = VCC – RCIC – VLED = VCC – RCILED – VLED
Therefore 0.7V < VCC – RCILED – VLED = 5V – RC x 20mA – 1.5V
RC < (5V – 1.5V – 0.7V)/20mA = 140 W
RC < 140 W (If we use the condition VCE > VCEsat = 0.2 V Þ RC < 165 W)
Note: In practice VCB > 0.4V
d) The value range of RB for BJT in saturation mode (LED is ON) when RC in the value range of b)
In saturation mode: bIBsat > ICsat
where IBsat = (VI – VBEsat)/RB and ICsat = ILED
Therefore RB < b(VI – VBEsat)/ ILED = 100(5V – 0.8)/20mA = 21KW
Thus, 0 £ RB < 21 KW
e) What is b of BJT for BJT in saturation mode with LED is ON when RB = 1 KW and RC =170 W
In saturation mode: bIBsat > ICsat
where IBsat = (VI – VBEsat)/RB and ICsat = ILED
Therefore b > ICsat / IBsat = RB ILED/(VI – VBEsat) = 1KW x 20mA/(5V – 0.8V) = 4.76
Thus: b > 4.76 (typical value of b : 70 – 120 Þ almost BJTs sastify this condition)
6. Design of a battery charging circuit with Fig. 4, tunable charging current in the range 10mA to 100mA.
It means that we have to find values of VCC, R1, R2 (variable resistor) for Q1 (b = 100) acting as tunable
constant current source with IC = 10mA to 100mA.
Ans.
Assume that BJT in forward active mode and large signal model with VBE = 0.7V.
Therefore IC = b IB where IB=(VCC–VBE)/(R1+R2)
and with the condition IC: 10mA £ IC £ 100mA , we havve
æ V - VBE ö
10mA £ b ç CC ÷ £ 100mA
è R1 + R2 ø
Potentiometer R2 can be adjusted from từ 0 đến full R2, and IC is max when R2 = 0. Since we can
select R1 as follows:
VCC - VBE
100mA = b or R1 = 10 b (VCC - VBE ) [W]
R1
Let VCC = 12V (a value > voltge rating of charging battery), we get R1 = 11.3 KW
In practice, we have to use standard resistors, therefore we select R1 = 12 KW (i.e. IC max s slightly
less than 100mA).
Value of R2
VCC - VBE
R2 = b - R1
10mA
After replacements, we get R2 = 101.7 KW
Nếu dùng điện trở chuẩn thì chọn biến trở 100K cho R2, khi đó IC min hơi lớn hơn 10mA!
Chú ý: Thực tế thì các pin NiCd như loại 9V được làm từ 8 pin nhỏ 1.2V, nghĩa là điện áp danh
định của nó là 9.6V. Khi pin được nạp đầy thì mỗi pin nhỏ có điện áp là 1.3V, dẫn đến điện áp nạp
đầy là 10.4V. Như vậy chỉ cần chọn VCC > 10.4V + VCEsat thì đạt yêu cầu!
7. Find the Q point (DC oprerating point) of BJT in Fig. 5. Given parameters: R1 = 100 KW; R2 = 50 KW;
RC = 5 KW; RE = 3 KW; VCC = 15 V; VBE(on) = 0.7 V, and β = 100.
Ans.
For convenience of calculations, we will transform the base circuit into the Thévenin equivalent
as follows:
b)
Using the value of RB from a) and BJT still in forward active mode, we have
IC = 2mA and VCE > VCESAT = 0.2V.
Therefore:
VCC = RCIC + VCE
Þ VCE = VCC – RCIC > VCESAT = 0.2V
Þ RC < (VCC – VCESAT)/IC = (12 – 0.2)V/2mA = 5.9 kW
Thus, 0 £ RC < 5.9 kW
