    This experiment analyzes the stability of a BJT collector feedback biasing circuit. The circuit employs negative feedback to prevent thermal runaway and stabilize the operating point. If the collector current increases, the voltage drop across the collector resistance also increases, reducing the base current and collector current back to their original values. Measurements were taken of the circuit's voltages and currents, and compared to calculated values with errors within 15-16%. The collector feedback configuration provides better bias stability than a simple base bias circuit.

    Experiment No 2

    Stability analysis of BJT collector feedback biasing circuit


    Objective:
    To learn about the stability of collector feedback biasing circuit

    Apparatus
    1. Transistor
    2. Breadboard
    3. DC power supply
    4. DMM

    Theory
    Biasing of BJT
    Biasing refers to the application of D.C. voltages to setup the operating point
    in such a way that output signal is undistorted throughout the whole operation.
    Also once selected properly, the Q point should not shift because of
    change of IC due to
    (i) β variation due to replacement of the transistor of same type
    (ii) Temperature variation

    Stabilization
    The process of making operating point independent of temperature changes or
    variation in transistor parameters is known as stabilization.
    Stabilization of operating point is necessary due to

     Temperature dependence of IC
     Individual variations
     Thermal runaway
    Temperature dependence of IC & Thermal runaway
    IC= βIB + (β + I)ICBO
     ICBO is strong function of temperature. A rise of 10oC doubles the ICBO and IC will increase
    ( β+1) times of ICBO
     The flow of IC produce heat within the transistor and raises the transistor temperature
    further and therefore, further increase in ICBO
     This effect is cumulative and in few seconds, the IC may become large enough to burn
    out the transistor.
     The self destruction of an unstablized transistor is known as thermal runaway.

    Stability Factor
    The rate of change collector current I C with respect to the collector leakage current I CBO at
    constant β and IB is called stability factor, denoted by S.

    IC= βIB + (β + I)ICBO


    Differentiating equation w.r.t IC
    Collector feedback biasing circuit

     This configuration employs negative feedback to prevent thermal runaway and stabilize
    the operating point.
     In this form of biasing, the base resistor R B is connected to the collector instead of
    connecting it to the DC source Vcc.
     So any thermal runaway will induce a voltage drop across the R C resistor that will throttle
    the transistor's base current.

    Applying KVL Q (VCE,IC) is set


    VCC = (IC+IB)RC + VCE (1)
    VCE = I B RB + VBE (2)
    Since, IC = βIB so from equation (1) & (2)

    Advantages:
    Better stabilization compared to base bias

    Disadvantages:
    This circuit provides negative feedback which reduces the gain of the
    amplifier.

    How the bias stability is improved in collector base bias?


    If IC becomes larger than design value, it causes an increase voltage drop across R C hence
    smaller value of VCE which in turn causes IB to be smaller than its design value. Since I C = βIB
    thus IC will also tend to be reduced towards its original value.
    For bias Stabilization: (RB<< βRC)

    If RB<< βRC

    Procedure
     I connected the resistors to the base, emitter and collector terminals of transistor.
     I connect the DC power supply VCC with collector resistance RC.
     I checked the Q point of the transistor..
     And also record the value of current and voltages of transistors.
     Performed the exp in the constant in temperature.
