Emitter common

Eigure 11 shows a schematic and collector characteristics for a common emitter n—p—n transistor circuit. The load line crossing these characteristics shows the allowed operation of the transistor with a supply voltage, = 12 V a load resistor, 7 = 2 and a bias resistor, 7 g = 20 kQ. The load line corresponds to the equation = 7 7 -H. Plotting the load line on the collector characteristics defines BJT behavior 0.6 V is required...

Here, we show a so-called "common-emitter" configuration of a p-n-p transistor, i.e.- the emitter states are eoupled together. In general, such a... 

Examining the scenario with M receivers and one common emitter there is a significant practical limitation when attempting to implement the previous methodology. It was assumed in that analysis that the scattered signals must be processed jointly. This is easier to achieve... 

A question in passing will your 2N2222A not get fried if 35,000V gets applied to your divider chain Won t you get some 175mA driven into the base as it is common-emitter Pardon my ignorance. I m only self-taught in electronics.

The turn-on and turnoff measurements were performed at room temperature using a power supply voltage of 300V and a load resistance of approximately 20Q in common emitter mode. Typical turnoff and turn-on transients recorded at 25°C are shown in Figures 6.21 and 6.22. The device was turned off by simply removing the base current. A turn-on rise time of 160 ns and a turnoff fall time of 120 ns were observed at 25°C. In addition, a storage time of approximately 40 ns was observed.

The frequency components of a signal can be obtained directly from PSpice by enabling the Fourier option in the Time Domain (Transient) setup. We will use the common-emitter amplifier circuit shown on page 361. To modify the Time Domain (Transient) setup select PSpice and then Edit Simulation Profile. 

When we design a circuit with tolerance, we may sometimes want to find the worst case upper or lower 3 dB frequency with component tolerances. Unfortunately, calculating a 3 dB frequency requires that we find the mid-band gain and then find the frequency where the gain is 3 dB less than the mid-band. This type of calculation cannot be specified in the Monte Carlo/Worst Case dialog box. However, we can run a Monte Carlo analysis and then determine the 3 dB frequency using the Performance Analysis capabilities available in Probe. In this example, we will illustrate finding the maximum lower 3 dB frequency (FL), minimum upper 3 dB frequency (FH), and maximum and minimum bandwidth (FH - FL) for a common-emitter amplifier.

A totally different way of looking at transistor action is by using a common-emitter circuit (Fig. 9.19B) Now the input current is (a relatively small) iBr and the output is the relatively large) collector current zc this collector current is still controlled by the Ebers-Moll equation, but the current gain is now explicit ...
