"Bias voltage applied to the emitter electrode of a transistor offers greater stability over bias toward its base." Why? How does that actually work? My professor wants a detailed, engineering level explanation for this, and I am struggling to understand this to the degree he is asking. He says having both a positive and negative voltage source at the emitter bias is not necessary, and won't accept this as part of the explanation. Thanks!
b) For correct operation as an ac amplifier a npn BJT must be correctly DC biased to establish an appropriate Q-point, i.e a negative voltage VBC between the base and collector terminals and a positive voltage VBE between the base and emitter terminals. Figure 3.1 shows a circuit that can achieve this requirement. Explain the role of each resistive element in this circuit.
