Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a common emitter amplifier with fixed bias has a supply voltage of 12V and a collector resistor of 3.3k Ohms, calculate the maximum expected collector current before saturation when beta is 150.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the voltage drop across the resistors in conjunction with the supply voltage.

Question 2

Design a cell bias circuit using standard resistor values that maintains an exact collector current of 2 mA when beta varies from 100 to 200.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use simultaneous equations involving beta and the defined target currents.
