DC analysis of Transistor circuits
DC Analysis of a Bipolar Junction Transistor Circuit
What is shown above is a typical bipolar junction transistor
circuit.
In this article, we're going to show how to perform DC analysis of this transistor circuit.
DC Analysis
When doing DC analysis, all AC voltage sources are taken out of
the circuit because they're AC sources. DC analysis is concerned only with DC
sources. We also take out all capacitors because in DC, capacitors function as
open circuits. For this reason, everything before and after capacitors are
removed, which in this circuit includes resistor, Rs.
Below is the schematic of the circuit above with respective to DC analysis:
Now let's do the calculations to find the Vbb, Rb, Ieq, and Vceq.
From this then, we can find the quiescient or just simply Q-point of this
transistor circuit.
