An npn BJT with grounded emitter is operated with VBE = 0.7 V, at which the current is 1 mA. A 10 kΩ resistor connects the collector to a +15 V supply. What is the collector voltage, VC? Now, if a signal is applied to the base raises vbe to 710 mV, find the resulting total collector current, iC and collector voltage, vC. Also calculate the voltage gain, vc/vbe.

a. For the circuit shown below, show a clean and labeled small signal equivalent circuit and derive the expression for vo/vb, (vb is the small signal voltage at the base node) vo/vsig, Rin and Rout. (b) This is the design part. The specifications are as follows: The required gain vo/vb = −120 V/V, Ic = 1 mA. and the require voltage swing at the output is ±3 V around the DC value of the output. (Hint: Do not use the generic design rule. You should be able to find the DC voltages at the collector and emitter from the specifications). Assume Vcc = 8 V. For this design assume VA = ∞ (this makes ro = ∞), V T (Thermal Voltage) = 25 mV, VBE = 0.7 V, VCEsat = 0.3 V and β = ∞. Find the values of RC, RE, RB1, and RB2. (c) If the β = 100 instead of the design value, find the new Ic. Now assuming VA = 50 V find vo/vsig, Rout and RIN. For this part assume Rsig = 10 kΩ. Punt: If you could not answer (b), use RC = 3 kΩ, RE = 2 kΩ, RB1 = 50 kΩ, and RG2 = 30 kΩ (d) Run a transient simulation of the designed circuit in Multisim. Use the same BJT used in the lab simulation. Show the input voltage v sig and output voltage v o on the same plot. Choose vsig to be at 1 kHz and 10 mV peak sinusoidal. Compare with calculated value of the gain in part c.
