When a transistor is in this state, we say that the transistor is OFF 2. Active egion where amplification takes place 3. Saturation egion where the maximum current flows in the collector for a given load. 253

Large Scale D Models For each of these regions, we can define an analysis model to aide in the D operation of the transistor 255
Large Scale D Models utoff egion npn pnp V < V FThreshold 0.6 V V < V FThreshold 0.6 V V > V FThreshold 0.6 V V > V FThreshold 0.6 V 256

An xample 200k This circuit uses one D source to set the Q point. The term, ias point, is synonymous with Q point. Therefore we call this circuit a selfbias circuit V β = 100 V Let s first assume that this circuit is in cutoff. We will use the model for cutoff 259
An xample If this is in cutoff, then V = 15V. ut this can t be since to be in cutoff V < V FThreshold 0.5 200k β = 100 V V 200k 1k =0 =0 V V 260
An xample 200k 1k β = 100 Now let s assume that this circuit is in the saturation region. And we will use the model for the saturation region V V 261
200k An xample If this is in the saturation region, then i = (15 0.7) / 200k =71.5m A i = (15 0.2) / 1k =14.8 m A β =100 * 71.5m = 7.15 ma < i NOT OK!!!! β = 100 V V 200k 0.2V V I<b ic 0.7V V 262
An xample 200k 1k β = 100 Now let s assume that this circuit is in the active region. And we will use the model for the active region V V 263
200k 1k β = 100 An xample If this is in the active region, then i = (15 0.7) / 200k =71.5m A i = 100 * 71.5m A = 7.15 ma V =15 (7.15 m * 1k) = 7.85 V > 0.2V OK!!!! V V 200k 0.7V I=βIc V V 264
