Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a BJT in a common emitter configuration with a base current of 12 µA and a current gain of 150, determine the expected collector current.
💡 Hint: Focus on the multiplication of two current values.
If the collector-emitter voltage drop is 5V across a BJT, and the collector current is calculated to be 2 mA, determine the resistor value connected to the collector if the voltage supply is 12V.
💡 Hint: Recognize that the total supply voltage must account for voltage drops across the resistor.
