Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

If a transistor operates with a collector-emitter voltage of 10V and a base-emitter voltage of 0.7V, find the expected base current given that the base-emitter current is 1 mA and the base width is 0.2μm.

💡 Hint: Explore how changing one parameter influences the others along with the supporting equations.

Question 2

Design a BJT circuit to achieve maximum β while minimizing recombination losses. What factors must be considered?

💡 Hint: Consider physical adjustments in design, such as narrowing the base width and adjusting doping levels.
