(DC input signal 0.7V) The slope of the ic - vBE curve at the bias point Q is the transconductance gm: the amount of ac current produced by an ac voltage. It gives rise to a collector signal current ic, superimposed on the dc current IC. Transconductance IB ac output signal DC output signal A small ac signal vbe is superimposed on the DC voltage VBE. A transistor’s operating point (Q-point) is defined by.We must operate the transistor in the linear region.Slope of output characteristics in linear region is near 0 (scale exaggerated).At a fixed IB, IC is not dependent on VCE.Output characteristics IC IB = 40mA IC IB = 30mA IB = 20mA IB = 10mA VCE Early voltage Cutoff region Summary of equations for a BJT IE IC IC=bIB b is the current gain of the transistor 100 VBE = 0.7V(npn) VBE = -0.7V(pnp)Ĥ.5 Graphical representation of transistor characteristics IC IB Output circuit Input circuit IE Summary of pnp transistor behavior pnp IC collector base large current IB + VBE - emitter IE small current Summary of npn transistor behavior npn IC collector base large current IB + VBE - emitter IE small current Modes of operation of a BJT transistor Mode BE junction BC junction cutoff reverse biased reverse biased linear(active) forward biased reverse biased saturation forward biased forward biased Operation of npn transistor Large current
