Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions

Question 1 Easy

Calculate the base current (IB) for a fixed bias circuit where VCC = 15V, VBE = 0.7V and RB = 1MΩ.

💡 Hint: Use the formula IB = (VCC - VBE) / RB.

Question 2 Easy

What is the main disadvantage of using fixed bias for transistor amplifiers?

💡 Hint: Consider how changes in transistor characteristics affect the Q-point.
