Miscellaneous Bread board and wires 1.3 Introduction Transistors used in amplifier circuits must be biased into an on state with constant (direct) levels of collection base and emitter current and constant terminal voltages. The levels of I C and V CE define the transistor dc operating point, or quiescent point. The circuit that provides this state is known as a bias circuit. Ideally, the current and voltage levels in bias circuits should remain absolutely constant. In practical circuits these quantities are affected by the transistor current gain (h FE ) and by temperature changes. The best bias circuits have the greatest stability; they hold the currents and voltages substantially constant regardless of the h FE and temperature variations. 1.4 Potential divider bias Circuit Operation
2 Potential divider bias is also known as emitter current bias, or voltage divider bias. A voltage divider bias circuit is shown in Fig. 1.1, and the current and voltage conditions throughout the circuit are illustrated. It is seen that the collector resistor (Rc) and emitter resistor (R E ) are connected in series with the transistor. Thus the total dc load in series with the transistor is (Rc+R E ) and this total resistance must be used when drawing the dc load line for the circuit. Resistors R 1 and R 2 constitute a voltage divider that divides the supply voltage to produce the base bias voltage (V B ). Voltage divider bias circuits are normally designed to have the voltage divider current (I 2 ) very much larger than the transistor base current (I B ). In this circumstance V B is larger unaffected by I B, so V B can be assumed to remain constant. Analysis Referring to fig. 1.1, V B = V CC x R 2 / R 1 + R 2 (1.1) With V B constant, the voltage across the emitter resistor is also a constant quantity, V E = V B V BE (1.2) This means that the emitter current is constant, I E = V B V BE / R E (1.3) The collector current is approximately equal to the emitter current, so I C is held at a constant level. I C I E (1.4) The collector emitter voltage is V CE = V C V E (1.5) and the transistor collector voltage is V C = V CC I C R C (1.6)
3 V CE can also be determined as V CE V CC I C (R C + R E ) (1.7) Clearly with I C and I E constant, the transistor collector emitter voltage remains at a constant level. It should be noted that the transistor h FE value is not involved in any of the above equations. DC load line and the bias point The values of I C and V CE specify the dc operating point (Q point) and these values are written as I CQ and V CEQ respectively. For the known values of the components and supply voltage, we can analytically calculate the operating point. Another approach to find the Q point is the graphical method. Here, we draw the straight line (the dc load line) from the above equation on the I C V CE characteristics of the transistor as shown in Fig After calculating the base current, we identify the curve on the characteristics. The intersection of the load line with this characteristic curve gives the Q-point. If the bias current changes the Q-point will move on the load line because the characteristic curve will change. Potential divider bias circuit design Bias circuit design is just a matter of determining the required voltage across each resistor and the appropriate current levels. Then the resistor values are calculated by application of ohm s law. Designs usually begin with specification of the supply voltage and the required levels of I C and V CE. The resistor values are calculated to meet these requirements, and standard value resistors are selected. When designing a voltage divider bias circuit the voltage divider current (I 2 in Fig. 1-1) should be selected much larger than the transistor base current IB. This makes
4 the base voltage V B a stable quantity largely unaffected by the transistor h FE value. However, a high level of I 2 result in smaller resistance values for R 1 and R 2, and this gives the circuit undesirable low input impedance. A rule of thumb approach to selection of I 2 is to use a voltage divider current approximately equal to one tenth of the transistor collector current. I 2 = I C / 10 (1.8) This gives reasonably large values for R 1 and R 2 while still keeping I 2 much large than I B If V E is not specified, it should be selected much larger than the transistor V BE, V E >> V BE This is because VBE can vary from transistor to transistor, and it can also change with temperature increase or decrease. Making V E very much larger than V BE minimizes the effect of V BE changes on the circuit bias conditions. Typically, as another rule of thumb, V E is selected as 5v regardless of the supply voltage. When V CC is low, V E can be as low as 3 V. The equations used for calculating each resistor value are: R 1 = V CC V B / I 2 R C = V CC V CE V E / I C R 2 = V B / I 2 R E V E / I C Design problem Design the voltage divider bias circuit to have V CE = V E = 5v and I C = 5mA when the supply voltage is 15v. Assume the transistor h FE is 100. R E = V E / I E V E / I C = 5V / 5mA = 1K (standard value) R C = V CC -V CE -V E / I C = 15V-5V-5V / 5mA = 1K (standard value) From eq. (1.8), I 2 = I C /10 = 5mA / 10 = 500μA From eq. (1.2), V B = V E +V BE = 5V+0.7V = 5.7V
5 R 2 = V B / I 2 = 5.7V / 500 μa = 11.4K (use RK standard value) R 1 = V CC -V B / I 2 = 15V-5.7V / 500 μa = 18.6K (use 18k standard value) 1.5 Trouble shooting BJT bias circuits When a bias circuit is constructed in a laboratory situation, the supply voltage (V CC ) V B and V E ) should be measured with respect to the ground or negative supply terminal when the measured voltages are not as expected, the circuit must be further investigated to locate the fault. The following is a list of errors that commonly occur. Power supply not switched on Power supply current limiter control incorrectly set Cables incorrectly connected to the power supply VOM (volt ohm milliammeter) function incorrectly selected. Wrong VOM terminals used. Incorrect component connections Resistor in wrong places. Figure (1.4) shows unsuitable measured voltages and probable errors in a voltage divider bias circuit.
6 Fig. 1.4 unsatis factory measured voltages on a voltage divider bias circuit, and probable circuit faults. 1.6 Thermal stability of bias circuits Thermal stability is the measure of how stable I C and V CE remain when the circuit temperature changes, sine many transistor circuits are required to operate over a wide temperature range. The base-emitter voltage (V BE ) and the collectorbase reverse saturation current (I CBO ) are the two temperature sensitive quantities that largely determine the thermal stability of a transistor circuit. The EB and CB junction have the temperature characteristics as stated below: For a Si transistor, V BE changes by approximately -1.8 mv/ o C I CBO approximately doubles for every 10 o C rise in temperature changes in I CBO and VBE produce Significant changes in I C Circuit Q point Possibility of thermal runaway Stability factor The stability factor (S) of a circuit is the ration of the change in collector current to the change in collector base leakage current. S = I C / I CBO or, I C = S x I CBO (1.9) The value of S depends on the circuit configuration and on the resistor values. A stability factor of 50 (or larger) is considered poor, while a factor of 10 or less is considered good. For voltage divider bias, the stability factor can be shown to be S = 1 + hfe 1+ h FE R E / (R E + R 1 11 R 2 ) (1.10) The change in I CBO over a given temperature range can be calculated by recalling that I CBO doubles for every 10 o C increase in temperature. The temperature change ( T) is divided by 10 to give the number of 10 o C changes (n). If the starting level of collectorbase leakage current is I CBO (I), the new level is I CBO (2) = I CBO (I) x 2 n (1.11) The I CBO change and the circuit stability factor can be used to determine the change in I C. Then the resulting V CE change can be investigated.
7 Effect of V BE change Consider the voltage divider bias circuit designed in Fig.1.3 From eq. (1.3), I C I E = V B V BE / R E Assuming that V B remains substantially constant, an equation for I C change with V BE change can be writer as I C I E = V BE / R E (1.12) when the change in I C is determined, then the result mg V CE change can be investigated. Example 1-1 Calculate the stability factors for the voltage divider bias circuit designed in Fig Also determine the IC change produced when the circuit temperature increase from 25 o C to 125 o C by the effect of (i) I CBO, which is equal to 15nA at 25 o C (ii) V BE changes Solution Calculation of stability factor Effect of I CBO Changes T = 125 o C 25 o C = 100 o C or, the number of 10 o C changes, in = 100 o C / 10 o C =10 From eq. (1.11), I CBO (2) = I CBO (1) x 2 n = 15nA x 210 = 15.36μA I CBO = I CBO (2) I CBO (1) = 15.36μA - 15μA = μA from eq.(1.9) I C = S x I CBO = 7.65 x μA = μA
8 Effect of V BE changes V BE = T x (1-8mV/ o C) = 100 o C x 1.8mV/ o C = 180mV From eq (1-12), I C = V BE /R E = 180mV / 1K = 180μA Diode compensation The use of a diode to compensate for VBE changes is illustrated in Fig. 1-5 In this case, V B = V R2 + V D1 (1.13) and, I C I E = V R2 + V D1 V BE / R E (1.14) when VBE changes by VBE, the diode voltage changes by an approximately equal amount ( V D1 ). V BE and V D1 tend to cancel each other, leaving I C largely constant at I C I E = R 2 / R E (1.15) 1.7 Constant current biasing The fabrication of resistors and capacitors in integrated circuits is not economical. Thus, circuits are fabricated using the maximum number of transistors and the minimum number of resistors and capacitors. The biasing arrangements used in the integrated circuits use a constant current source (also called current) Q-point stable. Fig 1-6(a) shows a simple realization of the current source, I
9 The current mirror is a dc network in which the current through the boad is the mirror image of another current of the same network. If the reference current of the network is changed, the current through the load will also change. A basic current mirror constructed using two back-to back npn transistors is shown in Fig. 1-6(b). the load current is the collector current of Q2, and the reference collector current of Q3. Note, in particular, that the collector of Q1 is connected directly to the base of the same transistor, establishing the same potential at each point. The result is that V C3 = V BE3 = V BE2 = 0.7V. The controlling element is resistor R. If you change its value, you can change the reference current Once the resistance is set, the collector current of Q2 will immediately change to the new level. The operation of the mirror network is totally dependent on the fact that Q2 and Q3 are matched transistors, ie., transistors with very similar characteristics. Therefore, IREF = I L = V CC + V CE V BE / R (1.16) We can connect this simulated current source in place of I L in Fig. 1-6(a) and get a stable Q-point. Note that the current I L is independent of h FE and R B. This gives us liberty in choosing the value of R B 1.8 Pre lab questions 1) What is faithful amplification? What are the conditions to be fulfilled to achieve faithful amplification in a transistor amplifier? 2) What do you understand by transistor biasing? What is its need? 3) What do you understand by stabilization of Q-point? 4) Define Q-point and explain the concept of dc load line. 5) Analyze the voltage divider bias circuit in Fig. 1-7 to determine the transistor terminal voltages and currents (ie, V B, V C, V E, V BC, V CE, I C and I E ). Draw the load line and plot the Q-point. Also determine whether the transistor is biased in cutoff, saturation, or the linear region. 6) Design a voltage divider bias circuit using a BC107 transistor to have V CE = 4V, V E = 5V and I C = 1.3mA, the supply is V CC = 18V. (Note: Refer data sheet for hie and hfe values) 7) Calculate the stability factor for the voltage divider bias circuit designed in problem ) Determine the Q-point change (ie., I C change & V CE change) produced in VD bias circuit designed in problem 1-6 when the circuit temperature in creased from 50 o C to 150 o C, and I CBO 10nn at 50 o C.
10 9) Determine the Q-point change produced in voltage divider bias circuit designed in problem 1-6 when the circuit temperature increases from 50 o C to 150 o C, and I CBO = 10nA at 50 o C. 10) Calculate the mirrored current I in the circuit of Fig Experiment (1) Voltage divider 1.1 Determine the values of R 1, R 2, R C and R E from the design problem Assemble the circuit use BC107 transistor or equivalent. If the exact values of the components are not available, pickup the near by standard values. Measure hie and h FE of the transistor used. If the parameters of the transistor do not match the design specifications, recalculate the component values with these parameters. 1.3 Measure the Q-point. For measuring the Q-point, follow the procedure given below: Measure the voltage V C between the collector and the common terminal and then the voltage V E between the emitter and the common terminal. The difference (V C V E ) gives V CE The collector current I C is given by (V CC -V C ) / R C compare the measured values with the designed values. 1.4 Follow the same procedure the measure other transistor terminal currents and voltage. (2) Constant current biasing 2.1 From eq. (1-16) determine the value of R for the constant current biasing circuit as shown in Fig. 1-8 using the following data. R C = 2K, R B = 220K, V CC = 15V, V EE = 15V, V BE = 0.7V, I C = 5mA. Assume large h FE. Neglect I CBO. 2.2 Assemble the circuit use the BC107 transistors. If the exact values of the components are not available, pick up the nearby standard values. Measure hie and h FE of the transistor used. If the transistors do not match the design specifications, recalculate the component values with these parameters. 2.3 Measure the value of ICQ and VCEQ as per procedure given in step 1.3 compare the measured value with the design parameter.
