The amplifier uses voltage divider bias. Assume the BJT has ?=150. Assume all capacitors are sufficiently large to act as AC shorts. a. Recall the necessary condition for voltage divider bias where one can ignore the base current: Voltage Divider Bias Condition: RB2??10?RE?? Note: RB2? is the bottom resistor in the voltage divider. Calculate ?RE?/10. Is the condition satisfied? b. Calculate VB? using the voltage divider equation. c. Calculate the DC values of VE?,IE?,IC?, and VC?. Answer check: VC??8.1V d. Calculate Rin?, the resistance looking into the amplifier from Vin?. Answer check: 1890? e. Calculate the voltage gain of the amplifier with no load. Answer check: -9.4 f. Calculate the voltage gain of the amplifier with a load resistor RL?=1k? placed at Vout ?. Answer check: -2.9
