BJT DC ANALYSIS

Cards (25)

  • Bjt
    One of the two basic types of transistor
  • Bjt
    • Use into broad areas as a linear amplifier to boost or amplify an electrical signal
  • Transistor
    First name is vacuum tube
  • Vacuum tube
    Introduced by j.a fleming
  • Vacuum tube
    Lee de forest added third element called the control grid, resulting in the first amplifier the triode
  • Transistor construction
    • Substrate - another substances grow
    • Oxide - serves as insulator
    • Metalized contact - serves as conductor
  • Main parts of a transistor
    • Collector - largest region, lightly dope
    • Base - smallest region, lightly doped
    • Emitter - heavily doped
  • Doping ratio
    1. 1:10 or less
  • Bipolar
    • Because we used to polarize carriers or material
    • We could inject electrons on one terminal and can also inject holes on the other terminal at the same time
    • One carrier is unipolar device
  • Transistor
    • Made up of two words "transfer" and "resistor"
    • Also called transfer of resistance
    1. Q- point
    Was set to only active region
  • Alpha
    Less than one
  • Beta
    r than one
  • Rc coupled amplifier
    • Most common multiple bjt network
    • Use primarily in boosting voltage gain
  • Darlington amplifier
    • Feeds the output of one stage directly into the input of the succeeding stage
    • Use primarily in boosting current gain
  • Cascode configuration
    • Tying the collector of one transport the emitter of the other will result to network with high gain
  • Feedback pair
    • Employees both np and npnp transistor
    • With high gain and increase stability
  • Active region
    • Region normally employed for linear amplifiers
    • Base emitter junction is forward bias
    • Collector base junction is reverse bias
  • Cut off region
    • Define as the region where collector current is zero ampere
    • Base emitter and collector base junction are both reversed bias
  • Saturation region

    • Define as that region of the characteristics characteristic to the left of vcb is equal to zero
    • Base emitter and collector junctions are forward bias
  • Breakdown region
    • Point where the curve take a dramatic upswing
    • Due to avalanche effect
  • Operating point
    Also called quiescent point, means quiet, still, inactive
  • A transistor is said to be cut off when its collector current is zero
  • In active region the collector circuit acts like a current source
  • When a transistor is operating in its active region is ic controlled by IB
