TUTORIAL 4 – Transistor Configurations and Base Bias
6. The fixed bias circuit shown in figure uses a silicon transistor with VBE = 0.7V.
(a) Find the collector current, IC, and voltage VCE, if β of transistor is 60.
(b) Find IC and VCE if β changes to 80.
What conclusions may be drawn?
7. What is the saturation current and the cut-off for this circuit? Assume VCE=0.2 V in
saturation. Is the transistor saturated?
8. Determine IB, IC and VCE for the circuit. Draw the DC load line and determine if the
circuit is mid-point biased.
