Question 1

What is the effect of beta on collector current in a fixed bias circuit?

  • It has no effect
  • It increases collector current
  • It decreases collector current

💡 Hint: Remember, beta is the amplification factor of the transistor.

Question 2

The output voltage of a common emitter amplifier is affected by which factor?

  • Only the input voltage
  • The load resistance
  • Both input voltage and load resistance

💡 Hint: Think about how changes in these parameters affect amplifier operation.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a fixed bias CE amplifier with a supply voltage of 15V, a beta of 100, and a collector resistor of 2 kΩ. If the beta changes to 300, what would be the new collector voltage and current if the design allows?

💡 Hint: Use the voltage drop formula and ensure you consider the voltage limit to avoid saturation.

Question 2

Design a circuit with a cell bias configuration that maintains a collector current of 3 mA. List the resistors needed to achieve this with a supply voltage of 10V and react to varying beta.

💡 Hint: Apply the cell bias rationale to increase stability across varying beta.
