Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Design a circuit using an n-p-n transistor to amplify a signal from 1V to 5V. Describe the required biasing conditions and resistor values.

💡 Hint: Consider using feedback to stabilize the gain and maintain active operation.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a p-n-p transistor has a beta of 150 and the base current is 0.5 mA, calculate the collector current and assess if the transistor is in the active region assuming the collector voltage is 6V and emitter voltage of 8V.

💡 Hint: Check the biasing conditions before concluding the operational state.
