Consider the class-A emitter-follower circuit shown in Figure P8.16. Assume all transistors are matched with \(V_{B E}(\mathrm{on})=0.7 \mathrm{~V}, V_{C E}(\mathrm{sat})=0.2 \mathrm{~V}\), and \(V_{A}=\infty\). Neglect base currents. Determine the maximum and minimum values of output voltage and the corresponding input voltages for the circuit to operate in the linear region.
