Base-Emitter (Input) Loop Using Kirchoff’s voltage law: – VCC + IBRB + VBE = 0 Solving for IB: ELEC 121
Collector-Emitter (Output) Loop Since: IC = IB Using Kirchoff’s voltage law: – VCC + IC RC + VCE = 0 Because: VCE = VC – VE Since VE = 0V, then: VC = VCE AndVCE =VCC - IC RC Also: VBE = VB - VE with VE = 0V, then: VB = VBE ELEC 121
BJT Saturation Regions When the transistor is operating in the Saturation Region, the transistor is conducting at maximum collector current (based on the resistances in the output circuit, not the spec sheet value) such that: ELEC 121

Load Line Analysis ELEC 121
Load Line Analysis • The end points of the line are : ICsat and VCEcutoff • For load line analysis, use VCE = 0 for ICSAT, and IC = 0 for VCEcutoff • ICsat: • VCEcutoff: • Where IB intersects with the load line we have the Q point • Q-point is the particular operating point: • Value of RB • Sets the value of IB • Where IB and Load Line intersect • Sets the values of VCE and IC.
