Solution:
Note the convention in naming input (or output) voltage (or current):
DC Input Voltage: VI, AC Input Voltage: vi, Net Voltage: Vi = VI + vi

 3. Determine an appropriate Q point (value of VIY and VOY) and the minimum supply voltage VCC
so that the amplifier circuit shown below in Figure 3(c) would properly amplify an input voltage

voy = vo = −ioy 0.1K = −2V Sin(t )
Viy = VIY + viy  1.5V  VIY − 0.2Sin(t )  1.5  VIY  1.7
Voy = VOY + voy  1V  VV 2VSin(t )  1V
OYOY−3V  VOY  3V
Hence, the minimum supply voltage needed is VCC = 7 V (taking VIY = 1.7 V and VOY = 3 V).
