Chapter 4:

DC Biasing–BJTs

2Dept. of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, KUET

Biasing

Biasing: The DC voltages applied to a transistor in order to turn

it on so that it can amplify the AC signal.

3Dept. of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, KUET

Operating Point

The DC input establishes an

operating or quiescent point

called the Q-point.

Which point is best?

The Three States of Operation

• Active or Linear Region Operation

Base–Emitter junction is forward biased

Base–Collector junction is reverse biased

• Cutoff Region Operation

Base–Emitter junction is reverse biased

• Saturation Region Operation

Base–Emitter junction is forward biased

Base–Collector junction is forward biased

is at its maximum possible value.

Emitter-Stabilized Bias Circuit

Adding a resistor (RE) to

the emitter circuit

stabilizes the bias circuit.

Improved Biased Stability

Stability refers to a circuit condition in which the currents and voltages

will remain fairly constant over a wide range of temperatures and

transistor Beta () values.

Adding RE to the emitter improves the stability of a transistor.

DC Bias with Voltage Feedback

Another way to

improve the stability

of a bias circuit is to

add a feedback path

from collector to

base.

In this bias circuit

the Q-point is only

slightly dependent on

the transistor beta, .

Collector-Emitter Loop

Applying Kirchoff’s voltage law:

RE IE + VCE + I’CRC – VCC = 0

Since IC IC and IC = IB:

IC(RC + RE) + VCE – VCC =0

Solving for VCE:

VCE = VCC – IC(RC + RE)

PNP Transistors

The analysis for pnp transistor biasing circuits is the same

as that for npn transistor circuits. The only difference is that

the currents are flowing in the opposite direction.
