Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If the base-emitter voltage is increased to 0.7 V, estimate the increase in collector current assuming the saturation current is 1µA.

💡 Hint: Ensure to consider thermal voltage V_T at room temperature (~25 mV).

Question 2

How would the BJT's performance change if the emitter doping is increased drastically?

💡 Hint: Think about the implications of minority carrier lifetimes and gradients.
