Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

You have a BJT differential amplifier with a supply voltage of +/- 10V. If the amplifier can handle a maximum common-mode input of 8V without distortion, calculate what percentage of the supply voltage this input represents.

💡 Hint: Consider how to convert the common-mode input into a percentage of the total supply.

Challenge 2 Hard

Explain what factors could lead to a narrow ICMR in a practical amplifier setup. Consider material properties and environmental influences.

💡 Hint: Think about both the component quality and the testing environment.
