Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A BJT amplifier has R_C = 4.7 kΩ, and I_CQ = 0.5 mA. Calculate A_d, A_cm for R_E = 100 kΩ, and finally CMRR.
💡 Hint: Break it down step by step, starting with the individual calculations.
If you encounter saturation in your amplifier, how would you analyze the linearity and applicable range based on ICMR?
💡 Hint: Think practically about typical signal voltages that could input past these limits.
