101 For each transistor shown in Figure P10.1, determin whether the BE and BCjunctions forward- or reverse-biased, and determixe the operating region. osv _|- o6v d+ o7v |- + + = a by © @ 1. Mentify the type of transistors (whether they are upu or pup type) by the direction of arrow on the amittor (a) and (@) show arrow —> emutter to the base so, they are pup tyes. (b) and (c) are npn types. For all the cases, two of the voltages (with polarity) are shown in the figures. In order to determine the operating region of the transistor, we need to know the Base Emitter voltage and Base-Collector voltage 4. Use XVL equations for npn (Vg ‘cat Vaz ) and for pap [Vgc = VgctVzg) to get the unknown voltage. = 7 Tis NPN type! a al.
