  1. Plans • What does MCDE give us for the gain? • How can we use the equation to improve the gain? • Can we develop a compact circuit model for a BJT? ECE 663

  2. BJT Coordinate system and parameters ECE 663

  3. Forward Active minority carrier distribution P N P+ pB(x) nE(x’) nE0 pB0 nC0 nC(x’’) ECE 663

  9. Solutions in QN Emitter and Collector Regions ECE 663

  10. Solutions in the Base Region • Need to keep both positive and negative exponential terms in the general solution. • Apply Boundary conditions: • Solve for A1 and A2 and plug-in to general solution ECE 663

  14. Simplify • Active mode biasing: VEB>0 (forward bias) and VCB<0 (reverse bias) • Can keep only terms with emitter-base exponential ECE 663

  15. Performance factors: Emitter efficiency,  ECE 663

  16. Emitter Efficiency • Want to express in terms of doping: ECE 663

  17. Base Transport and Common Base Gain ECE 663

  18. Common Emitter Gain ECE 663

  19. Can also calculate total emitter and collector currents by adding up electron and hole currents in the collector and emitter Fortunately, for usable transistors (high gain) usually, the base is small Compared to the minority carrier diffusion length and the equations simplify ECE 663

  20. Narrow Base Approximation: W<<LB • Can simplify hyperbolic functions involving W/LB • If <<1, then sinh()  and cosh ()1 + 2/2 Linear concentration dependence across the base ECE 663

  21. Narrow Base Emitter Efficiency •  has If you want high emitter injection efficiency, then NB/NE << 1  High emitter doping ECE 663

  22. Performance factors: Base Transport factor aT If you want high base transport (T 1) then you want as small of a Base as possible W << LB or alternatively large LB = large p ECE 663

  23. Performance factors: Common Base Gain adc Want both high emitter doping and narrow base for high gain ECE 663

  24. Performance factors: Common Emitter Gain bdc Want both high emitter doping and narrow base for high gain ECE 663

  25. Circuit models • If VCB=0 then the equation for the emitter current looks like the ideal diode equation: ECE 663

  26. Circuit models If VEB=0, then the collector current equation also reduces to one that looks like an ideal diode equation: ECE 663

  27. Ebers-Moll Model The exp(VCB) term in the emitter equation and the exp(VEB) term in the collector current equation have the same prefactor: The emitter and collector current equations can be written in terms of four parameters (three are independent): Can show thatF= dc ECE 663
