[@minilab9030]

Excellent. I did not discover until recently that transistors made by the same manufacturer within the same batch, often differ wildly from one another. Hence emphasis on finding matching pairs of transistors (a problem not faced by valves which tend to be virtually homogenous). Fascinating. Thank you.

At around 13:23, the lecturer plots the obtained value pair of 7.75V and 1.5 mA on the graph on the left side of the screen. However, the lines in sky blue color which represent Ib (the base current) should have been changed to reflect the change in beta value. The sky blue lines are still representing beta value of 100 rather than 50 which he just used for calculation. If they were to represent beta value of 50, they would have come down closer to the horizontal axis, and the dot ( 7.75 V , 1.5 mA) would be riding on Ib = 30 uA curve. Right now in the graph, dot ( 7.75V, 1.5 mA ) looks like it is riding on Ib = 10 uA curve, which is very wrong.

[@Jnglfvr]

This is true. If this plot (13:23) represents the relationship between beta and Ic then when beta is halved from 100 to 50 then, keeping the ordinate scale the same, would compress the collector lines into the bottom half of the graph as, for each value of Ib, we would only have half the value of Ic. Similarly increasing the beta from 100 to 200 would expand the collector lines to twice it's exiting territory. Nevertheless the gist of the argument is sound. Namely that the fixed bias configuration is very sensitive to changes in beta.

Very Nice Explanation

[@markfinn825]

Buffers, Inverters, Gates, Latches, Toggle Flip Flops, and Data Flip Flops made with only SPDT Relays are a fun starting point for digital electronics since no resistance or voltage need be considered. All is mostly a switch being in one of two positions as controlled by an electromagnet being energized or unenergized. From there ICs can be substituted as needed as long as the rules for those ICs are followed.

[@mayurshah9131]

Excellent 👌 Very good

[@sanjaybhatikar]

So clearly explained! Awesome 👏

[@justpaulo]

(13:15) You have just calculated the new Ic using Ib= 30uA, so why the new operating point shifts to Ib=10uA line? Nevermind, I understood it by myself (I'm leaving the comment still for others benefit) In short, if you would plot the new curves of the β=50 transistor on top of the ones shown (for when β=100), the Ib lines for the new transistor would actually have 2x the Ib value. In other words, for the β=50 transistor the Ib=30uA line is further down and equivalent to the Ib=15uA line of the β=100 transistor (not the 10uA as drawn).

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Yes, that's true.

[@user-mj3ef]

justpaulo Yes changing the beta changes the output characteristic curves. I think he better correct that part of the video.

[@shinejotom7052]

Sir please explain..we can find operating point without condering load line by observing the active region of the experimental output graph then why we introduce load line what is the significance??

[@billwilliams6338]

ALL ABOUT ELECTRONICS Does the AC/DC load line mean the maximum output wattage power of the transistor or does the AC/DC load line mean the power dissipation of the transistor? Because the AC/DC load line is selected by the EE designer of the operating voltage and operating current for the transistor and the DC bias Q point which will determine the maximum output wattage power out of the transistor and the power dissipation of the transistor. I'm not sure what the LOAD means in the AC load line and DC load line what they are calling the LOAD.

[@matnor1149]

In nonlinear cct analysis the (nonlinear) electronic device is defined as the source; the biasing cct and the load resistor forms the load to the device. Refer to book by Belanger, Adler, and Rumin.

[@mayukhmalidas]

Sir , in the last part You showed the change in the Operating Point due to change in Beta . For Beta 50 and 200 while calculating IC you considered IB = 30 microamps , but as the operating point changed the IB changed to 10 and 50 microamps . I cannot relate the two . IB is chosen to be 30 how can it change ????????

[@JohnSmith-ey9xs]

Good catch. The characteristic curves themselves (or at least the IB labels) needed to change along with the change in Beta. See also walkalone's comment below.

[@sandipansabale3797]

I have the same question.

[@pap4t371]

itu perbandingan saat transistor kita hitung dalam kondisi suhu stabil tetapi saat transistor dalam keadaan panas nilai hfe/beta juga berubah, alhasil kurva menunjukkan hasil yang berbeda juga dan tentu kita juga harus faham wilayah saturasi dan wilayah aktif transistor. itu menurut saya

[@teerath1000]

@13:25 with Beta=50 and Ib= 30 mA , Ic=1.5mA and Vce=7.75volt, why you have mapped Q point on Ib=10 micro Amp? Please explain why are we mapping the Q point on Ib = 10 micro Amp , and does this mean Ib will also change?

[@zeen5163]

how did you get that sine wave showing it gets clipped at those peaks? ( @3:33 )

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Let me explain with some numbers. Let's say you have biased the BJT in a such a way that, VCE = 2V. And on top of that biasing voltage the output sinewave swings by +- 3V. That means on the positive side, it will go maximum up to 5V, while on the negative side, it will minimize to (+2 - 3) = -1V. But it won't be able to go below 0V. So, output voltage won't go below 0V. And for that portion where the output supposed to go below 0V, gets clipped. The same thing is represented graphically. If you observe, on the horizontal axis, the VCE is close to 0V. (Maybe around 1V or 2V) If the voltage swing is reduced, then the output signal won't clip. I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@flitz930]

@@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS it did clear mine thanks

[@slw287r3]

When input signal is in negative cycle VBE will become reverse bias right ?? Then Ic should not flow ryt ??

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Here we are discussing about the DC biasing. On top of it there will be small ac input signal for amplification. But because of the dc biasing, the overall signal won't go below 0.7V. Or altleast that's how the biasing is done. If you go through the entire series on BJT then I have explained about large and small signal analysis. For more information, you can go through it.

[@srikanthmamidi8488]

At 9:00min graph i can't understand could you do with values in next video thank you

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Consider any value of VCC and RC. Let's say, VCC = 10V and RC = 1KΩ. So, on the load line, Vce (max), the one end of load line on horizontal axis will be 10 V and ic ( max), the other end of load line will be 10 mA. That means, with the chosen values of VCC and RC, your operating point will be between two extremes. I hope, it will clear your doubt.

[@tqaquotes9379]

04:20 how do you decide this point (5VCE and 10mA Ic) as Q point?

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

It depends on your operating current and voltage. You should select the values of resistors and hence the biasing in a such a way that, the Q point remains in the center of the curve.

[@saumyapandey2270]

Why in DC analysis capacitor acts as an open ckt... Plz clear my doubt sir..

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

Once the capacitor is fully charged then there is no flow of current through it, and therefore it acts like an open circuit. Therefore, for DC analysis, we can assume that, the capacitor is open circuit.

What happens if i try to make Vce negative by Increasing Ic by increasing Ib? Vce can't become negative nah, so what happens?

[@deepanjalimishraa]

Why the voltage Vce and collector current cant go below 0 volt and 0 amperes

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

In the given circuit, we have only positive biasing voltage. That means your output voltage can swing between +Vcc and 0V. It can't go below that. If the circuit consist of both positive and negative supplies, then it may go below 0V (depending on the input signal)

[@jarvisxu4976]

09:00 when Uce=0, Ic=0 according to transistor output characteristics graph, but Ic=Vcc/Rc according to output loadline. Can anyone explain that to me?

[@lorenzovonmatterhorn6773]

How can Ic be max when Vce is 0? When Vce is 0 doesn't the CB junction get forward biased causing no current in Ic except Icbo

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

I think you are talking about the load line. See, the two extreme points of the load line does not represent the actual operating point. The load line is just drawn from the equation, Vce = Vcc - Ic*Rc. The actual operating point is the intersection of the load line and device curve. So, of course the Vce can't be zero. But as the BJT goes into the saturation, Vce reduces to 0.1V or 0.2V. And hence, Ic increases. (The left portion of the device curve)

[@lorenzovonmatterhorn6773]

@@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS ah yes thanks that does make a lot of sense but what I don't understand is how when Ib is 0 Ic is also 0 even though there is a Vcc and similarly when Vce goes near 0 the CB junction should get forward biased which should stop the electrons from flowing from base to collector meaning Ic to be 0 but instead it gets to maximum. Other than this I have understood everything from your incredible videos. Thanks A LOTTTTTT!

[@upayande9997]

What is the use of the capacitors in the analysis of the circuit with AC input at 5:53 ?

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

They are coupling capacitors. During the analysis it has been assumed that we have pure AC source, but actually sometimes the ac signal is the output of some other amplifier stage. ( And it might contain DC part as well). The capacitor blocks this DC part and only passes the ac signal to the circuit. The same is the case for the output side capacitor. ( To block DC biasing voltage overriding on top of the ac signal). I hope it will clear your doubt.

[@imcnx1563]

So how we avoid that change in temperature affects our TR?

[@ALLABOUTELECTRONICS]

I have discussed that in the second video. (Emitter Bias and emitter Stabilized biasing) Please check that. Actually, there are a couple of parameters like β, Vbe and Reverse Saturation Current (Ico) which gets affected with temperature. For a while, during the discussion, it has been assumed that the Vbe and Ico are constant and only β changes with temperature. But in the upcoming videos, I will also cover the compensation techniques. (which may affect Vbe and Ico) But with some specific biasing configuration, it is possible to make an operating point almost independent of the variation β (due to temperature).
