Find the answer (in Volts) to Question 3 in the attached image where:
RC = 5.8 kOhms, RE = 2.0 kOhms,
VBE(sat) = 0.7 Volts, VCE(sat) = 0.2 Volts,
VB = 1.6 Volts and A = 0.29 Volts.

Transcribed Image Text:Questions 1 - 3
Consider the circuit shown in Figure 1 where Vcc is a fixed voltage. The voltage
at the base of the transistor, v (t), is a time varying waveform described by
(1).
v (t) = Vß + v₂ (t)
Where VB is a DC offset and v (t) is a time varying, purely AC signal.
Suppose the amplitude of v, (t) is A and we make the following assumptions:
• The capacitor C is sufficiently large so that it can be considered to be a
short circuit at the signal frequencies
• Rc and RE are known
• R» Rc
• UBE=UBE (sat)
• ß» 1 in the active region
• VBE(sat) and VCE(sat) are known
