CE Transistor Configuration

Using KVL around BE loop we get

V be =i b . hie + h . V ce
V eb =i b . hieh .V ce

-----------------------------------> (1)

Applying KCL at node C

i c =hfe . i b +hoe . V ce -----------------------------------> (2)
Using KCL at node E
i b+ i e +i c =0
i b=i eic
Substituting

---------------------------------------------> (3)
ic

from (2) in (3) we get

i b=i ehfe . i bh oe .V ce
i b ( 1+ hfe ) =i e hoe .V ce
i b=

i e h oe .V ce
1+ hfe

------------------------------->(4)

And,
V ce=V cb + V be
V ce=V cb V eb

------------------------------->(5)

By substituting (4) and (5) in (1) we get

i e +h oe .V ce
V eb =
h ieh ( V cbV eb ) ------------------------------->(6)
1+ hfe

By substituting from (5) in (6) and simplifying we get

V eb [ ( 1h ) ( 1+h fe ) +h oe hie ] =hie . i e + [ h ie .h oeh ( 1+ hfe ) ] V cb

( 1+h fe ) . Then we get

Now divide both sides of the above equation by

V eb [ ( 1h ) ( 1+hfe ) +hoe h ie ]
(1+h fe )
