Response to the following question:
An emitter follower is operating at a collector bias current of 0.5 mA and is used to connect a 10-kΩ source to a 1-kΩ load. If the nominal value of β is 100, what output resistance Rout and overall voltage gain Gv result? Now if transistor β is specified to lie in the range 50 to 150, find the corresponding range of Rout and Gv .
