Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Design a common base amplifier with given specifications (collector voltage, desired collector current). Include biasing methods and calculate the expected output swing.
💡 Hint: Analyze each step by acknowledging resistance and other parameters affecting bias and performance.
Submit a report discussing how varying β impacts output swing and overall performance of the common base amplifier.
💡 Hint: Think about how higher β values lead to better current transfer but affect overall dynamics.
