In a BJT amplifier with a common emitter configuration, if the base-emitter voltage, V_BE, is 0.7V and the saturation current, I_S, is 1 μA, compute the collector current, I_C. Consider thermal voltage, V_T, to be 26mV.
💡 Hint: Use the exponential relationship defined for a BJT.
If a BJT is operated at a collector current of 100 mA and has a beta value of 50, how much base current is required? What happens if the beta drops to 25?
💡 Hint: Focus on the formula relating the collector current, base current, and beta.
