Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given a PNP transistor configuration with V_E = 10V, V_B = 9.3V, and V_C = -1V. Calculate the emitter current (I_E) if the base current (I_B) is 50 µA.

💡 Hint: Use Kirchhoff’s law to sum the currents.

Challenge 2 Hard

If a PNP transistor has a β of 150 and the collector current is 3 mA, what is the base current?

💡 Hint: Remember β represents the current gain.
