Response to the following:
Consider the operation of the circuit shown in Figure for VB at -1 V, 0 V and +1 V. Assume that β is very high. What values of VE and VC result?
At what value of VB does the emitter current reduce to one-tenth of its value for VB = 0 V?
For what value of VB is the transistor just at the edge of conduction? (vBE = 0.5 V) What values of VE and VC correspond?
For what value of VB does the transistor reach the edge of saturation?
What values of VC and VE correspond?
Find the value of VB for which the transistor operates in saturation with a forced β of 2.
