Question:
The circuit in Figure P9.58 is used to drive an LED with a voltage source. The circuit can also be thought of as a current amplifier in that, with the proper design, \(i_{D}>i_{1}\).
(a) Derive the expression for \(i_{D}\) in terms of \(i_{1}\) and the resistors.
(b) Design the circuit such that \(i_{D}=12 \mathrm{~mA}\) and \(i_{1}=1 \mathrm{~mA}\) for \(v_{I}=5 \mathrm{~V}\).
