Consider an amplifier circuit using a BJT having Is = 10-¹5 A, a collector resistance Re = 6.8 ks, and a power supply Vcc= 10 V. (a) Determine the value of the bias voltage VE required to operate the transistor at VCE = 3.2 V. What is the corresponding value of Ic? (b) Find the voltage gain A, at this bias point. If an input sine-wave signal of 5-mV peak amplitude is superimposed on VBE, find the amplitude of the output sine-wave signal (assume linear operation). (c) Find the positive increment in VBE (above VBE) that drives the transistor to the edge of saturation, where UCE = 0.3 V.
