Question 1

What is the minimum V_BE voltage for transistors to operate in the active region?

  • 0.2 V
  • 0.6 V
  • 1 V

💡 Hint: Think about the threshold needed for the base to emit charge carriers.

Question 2

True or False: Increasing common mode voltage only affects the differential gain without affecting output distortion.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: How do both modes interact in actual amplifier operation?

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a differential amplifier with a specified common mode input range. Calculate the appropriate resistor values to maintain the operating point within specific limits.

💡 Hint: Use the relationship of voltage drops across resistors tied to expected currents.

Question 2

In a configuration where the input threshold is known, derive the maximum allowable input voltage to prevent transistors from entering saturation.

💡 Hint: Balance all voltages and consider individual device saturation thresholds.
