Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design an amplifier circuit utilizing an active load. Ensure the operating points achieve I_C = 2 mA and V_CE centered at 6 V. Discuss how the choice of resistors and transistors would affect performance.

💡 Hint: Recall the relationships between base current, collector current, and how resistor values determine these currents.

Question 2

If an active loaded CE amplifier reaches a voltage gain of 1000, compute the input and output resistances, taking into account parasitic capacitances affecting performance.

💡 Hint: Review the small signal analysis concepts discussed earlier to manage variations.
