Recognizing saturation • Assume linear operation. • Perform calculations for currents and voltages. • An impossible result means the assumption is false. • An impossible result indicates saturation.
Base bias • The base current is established by VBB and RB. • The collector current is b times larger in linear circuits. • The transistor current gain will have a large effect on the operating point. • Transistor current gain is unpredictable.
Emitter bias: 1 kW 1 kW RC VBB - VBE IC @ IE = 1.95 mA IE = RE 15 V VCC 2.2 kW RE 5 V VBB VC = 15 V - (1.95 mA)(1 kW) = 13.1 V VCE = 13.1 V - 4.3 V = 8.8 V
Comparing the bias methods • Base bias is subject to variations in transistor current gain. • Base bias is subject to temperature effects. • Emitter bias almost eliminates these effects. • The transistor current gain is not required when solving circuits with emitter bias.
Linear Troubleshooting • The difference between collector and emitter should be more than 1 V but less than VCC. • VBE should be 0.6 to 0.7 V. • VBE can be 1 V or more in high-current circuits. • Both open and shorted junctions are possible.
