Question:
A pnp transistor with \(\beta=60\) is connected in a common-base configuration as shown in Figure P5.8.
(a) The emitter is driven by a constant-current source with \(I_{E}=0.75 \mathrm{~mA}\). Determine \(I_{B}, I_{C}, \alpha\), and \(V_{C}\).
(b) Repeat part (a) if \(I_{E}=1.5 \mathrm{~mA}\).
(c) Is the transistor biased in the forward-active mode for both parts (a) and (b)? Why or why not?
