Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a simple BJT current mirror with a target reference current of 2mA and a beta of 150. Calculate the expected output current and discuss how to minimize the limitations observed.

💡 Hint: Utilize the correct formula and think critically about each component in the design.

Challenge 2 Hard

You have a current mirror circuit where the output current decreases drastically as the load resistance increases. Identify potential causes and recommend optimizations.

💡 Hint: Consider both electrical characteristics and physical attributes of the circuit to diagnose issues.
