Question #03 (CLO3, PLO2, C4)

(a) A common base-emitter BJT circuit is shown in Figure 2. Analyze this circuit by using the load
lines and find the maximum peak of the base current 𝐼𝑏(𝑝𝑒𝑎𝑘) for linear amplification.

 Use 𝑉𝐵𝐵 = 10, 𝑉𝐶𝐶 = 24𝑉, 𝑅𝐶 = 800Ω, 𝑅𝐵 = 50𝑘Ω, 𝛽𝐷𝐶 = 100 (10)

(b) Now increase the value of 𝑅𝐵 by 20% and decrease the value of 𝑅𝐶 by 20%. Again, analyze this
circuit by using the load lines and find the maximum peak of the base current 𝐼𝑏(𝑝𝑒𝑎𝑘) for linear
amplification. Compare you results and comments. (10)
