Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a BJT current mirror to achieve a mirrored output of 3 mA. Given the supply voltage of 12V and characteristics of the BJTs used, explain how you would select the resistor value to achieve this.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance, and how those affect your mirrored output.

Question 2

Calculate the impact of early voltage on a current mirror where V_EA is 100V. How would this affect the output current when varying the load?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider early voltage as part of your equation and analyze how current mirrors behave under changing conditions.
