Question:

An integrated-circuit npn transistor has the following measured characteristics: rb = 100Ω, rc = 100Ω, β0 = 100, ro = 50 kΩ at IC =1 mA, fT = 600 MHz with IC = 1 mA and VCB = 10 V, fT = 1 GHz with IC = 10 mA and VCB = 10 V, Cμ = 0.15 pF with VCB = 10 V, and Ccs = 1 pF with VCS = 10 V. Assume ψ0 = 0.55 V for all junctions, and assume Cje is constant in the forward bias region. Use rμ = 5β0ro.

(a) Form the complete small-signal equivalent circuit for this transistor at IC = 0.1 mA, 1 mA, and 5 mA with VCB = 2 V and VCS = 15 V.

(b) Sketch the graph of fT versus IC for this transistor on log scales from 1 µA to 10 mA with VCB = 2 V.
