Instructions:
• This assignment contains one question, from parts (a) to (l) and one figure.
• The answers and workings must be strictly handwritten on A4 size papers. No electronically produced,
printed, photocopied or scanned version of the answers will be accepted.
• Indicate clearly the total number of pages and matriculation number on the first page, and name and
tutorial group on every page of the answer sheets.
• For full-time students, the completed Homework Assignment 1 must be submitted according to the
following table. Please check your group number, submit your completed assignment to the lab officers at
the corresponding lab as shown in the table below by 20 March 5:00 p.m, 2013 (For example, the
students in groups TC01 submit your completed assignments to IC Design I (S1-B2b-13); the students in
groups TA09 submit your completed assignments to VLSI Lab (S2.1-B3-01), and so on so forth).

Question:
For the BJT amplifier circuit given in Figure 1, it has VEE = VCC = 15 V, RI = 550 , R1 = R2 = 200 k,
RL = 100 k, RC = 10 k RE1 = 50 kand RE2 = 150 k. Assume the transistor is with VBE = 0.7 V,
VA = 60V, and = 100, and the capacitors have infinite value. In your answers to the following parts,
please express all fractional voltage and current values in mV and mA respectively up to two decimal places
in your calculation. Resistance values that are larger than 1000 should be expressed in k.

(a) Draw the DC equivalent circuit.
(b) Calculate the Q-point of the transistor Q in Figure 1.
(c) Determine if the transistor Q is operating in the forward active region.
(d) Calculate the DC power dissipation of each component of the circuit.
(e) Verify that the total DC power dissipated by the circuit computed in (d) is equal to the total power
delivered by VEE and VSS.
(f) Draw small signal equivalent circuit of the amplifier.
(g) Calculate the resistances , of the amplifier.
