Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a BJT has β = 150 and a base current of 10 µA, calculate the collector current.

💡 Hint: Use the current gain formula to find the answer.

Challenge 2 Hard

Design a circuit that applies 0.7V across the base-emitter junction of a p-n-p transistor, ensuring that at least 1 mA flows through the collector. What resistances would you choose?

💡 Hint: Remember to keep track of the voltage across each resistor and the transistor's properties.
