Introduction: In some books and other technical papers (also from universities) it is - surprisingly - still claimed that the bipolar transistor (BJT) would be a current-controlled element. This is...
In most cases, the common-collector stage (emitter follower) is used as a buffer stage (unity gain). It is, therefore, an independent stage, whose mode of operation should not be determined by the ...
"Also, if there is a way to control this drop (without using an oamp), what are the design rules, or perhaps the rules of thumbs ?" "I reformulate this question:do you see any reason to use a FET ...
For my opinion, it is not too complicated to reduce the various equations to a system of two equations with two unknowns (current Ib2 neglected), Let me try: Vb1-Vx=I5*R5 I5=IC4+Vb1/R3 IC4=Ue...
Question: What is the purpose of the current mirror? Answer: It allows to combine the current changes in BOTH transistors (T1, T2). Explanation In a classical differential amplifier (with separat...
Miss Mulan - I am a bit late with my answer. Nevertheless - there is formula which gives you the necessary filter order "n" - as a function of two frequencies and both associated damping figures. ...
My Answer: There are only practical reasons for a representation with Ib=const. These characteristics are primarily used to determine the DC working point (Ic_o, Vce_o) - together with the working ...
I never would recommend to use the "re model" for a BJT. The reason is as follows: The BJT is a voltage-controlled device (Ic is controlled by Vbe and the base current is an unwanted by-product...
MissMulan - at first, you should show which nodes are connected (crossing points). Secondly, where are the voltages Vo and Vin in your diagram? Please keep in mind, that it is essential to OPEN t...
I must admit that your question (the described problem) is an interesting one. Speaking about the circuit (without consideration of the parts values), there are two feedback effects: At first, ...
In the past, a large number of new active building blocks have been proposed and published by many researchers all over the world. In most cases, these new building blocks were used for realizing n...
