Question 1
A BJT operates with an $I_C = 5 mA$, and at a given Q-point, you need to determine $g_m$ if $V_T = 25mV$. Construct the small signal model and analyze.
💡 Hint: Recall the relationship of $g_m$ in terms of $I_C$ and $V_T$.
Question 2
Given BJT characteristics, define the implications of varying $g_o$ in terms of its impact on output current with changes in $V_{CE}$.
💡 Hint: Explore the passive effects of Early voltage on collector current behavior.
