Homework Statement
The terminal voltages to ground are measured on a particular BJT. In what region does the device operate if these terminal voltages are equal to the following values:
a) Vc = 6V, Vb = 0.6V, Ve = 0V
b) Vc = 6V, Vb = 2V, Ve = 1.4V
c) Vc = 6V, Vb = 6V, Ve = 5.4V
d) Vc = 6V, Vb = 4V, Ve = 3.6V
e) Vc = 3.6V, Vb = 4V, Ve = 3.4V
Homework Equations
No idea which equations apply to this.
The Attempt at a Solution
I sort of just guessed because I honestly have no idea:
a) Cut-off
b) Constant current
c) Constant Current
d) Constant Current
e) Saturation
I don't know why, but I am having a hard time understanding some of the concepts in the book we are using (Microelectronic Circuits and Devices 2nd, Horenstein) so these problems are giving me trouble. The book seems to be really vague.
