Chapter 5-1

In this chapter, we will:


Discuss the physical structure and operation of
the bipolar junction transistor.
Understand the dc analysis and design
techniques of bipolar transistor circuits.
Examine three basic applications of bipolar
transistor circuits.

Investigate various dc biasing schemes of bipolar


transistor circuits, including integrated circuit
biasing.
Consider the dc biasing of multistage or multitransistor circuits.

B-C junction is reverse biased
Saturation
B-E and B-C junctions are forward biased
Cut-Off
B-E and B-C junctions are reverse biased
Inverse-Active (or Reverse-Active)
B-E junction is reverse biased
B-C junction is forward biased

Problem-Solving Technique:
Bipolar DC Analysis
1. Assume that the transistor is biased in
forward active mode
a. VBE = VBE(on), IB > 0, & IC = IB
2. Analyze linear circuit.
3. Evaluate the resulting state of transistor.
a. If VCE > VCE(sat), assumption is correct
b. If IB < 0, transistor likely in cutoff
c. If VCE < 0, transistor likely in saturation
4. If initial assumption is incorrect, make new
assumption and return to Step 2.
