Question: Problem 1 : B . JT DC Circuits. Let the NPN BJT QN have the following properties: { V B E N = 0 .

Problem 1: B.JT DC Circuits.
Let the NPN BJT QN have the following properties: {VBEN=0.7(V) when BE junction is ON,=100 and {:VCENsat=0.1(V)}. Let RBIN=RB2N and each has resistance value in the range of tens of K. Lel Ren and Ren have resistance values in the range of a lew K.
1.a Choose all the resistors so that ICN=1mA and VCEN=3V. For your convenience, assume that RBIN and RB2N creale an "almost-voltage-divider". Then you can easily delermine VB and VE and chouse REV to set the desired ICN spee and then set RCN to meet the VCEn spee. Of course, don't forget to justify the Active Mode assumption and the "almost-voltage-divider" assumption.
1.b Now, change one of the RBN resistors (to another finite and nonzero value) to drive the BJT into Saturation Mode. Once you violate the Active Mode assumption, while still keeping the BE junction forward biased, solve the circuit that now operates in Saturation Mode.
1.e In your design of 1.a offer a change of one of the RRN resistors (to another finite and nonzero value) in order to drive the BIT into Cutoff Mode. Solve the circuit in the Cutoff Mode.
Problem 2: BJT small-signal amplifier.
Let the PNP'BJTQP properties be {VEBP=0.7(V) if the EB junction is ON,=100 and Early voltage VA=100V; The internal resistance of the input signal source is Rsig=200. The load resistance is RL=10K. You cannot change the source resistance nor the load. Let RBIP=RB2P=40K. Let RFP=3.9K and let RrP=3K.
2.a Find the DC voltages and currents of the amplifier, the BJT's small-signal parameters, and draw the small-signal diagram of the amplifier. Is the Active Mode assumption true?
2.b Find the amplifier's small-signal input resistance Rin and the small-signal voltage gain.
2.c Find the maximum allowed amplitude of vsig(t), assuming that the amplitude of the small signal |veb(t)| must not exceed 10 mV .
2.d Modify one of the resistors in order to increase the voltage gain by 20%. Hint: It would be the simplest to tweak the only resistor that has nothing to do with setting the DC current ICr.
