Ibq is base current at operating point taken as 0.7, this 0.7 is the barrier potential voltage at base.

What about Re?

Why we not consider loop for i/p side?

Ic = βIB + (β+1) ICBO => Ic = βIb [Since, ICBO = 0; given].

SO, Ic = 90*20 uA = 1.8 mA.

Voltage drop across RE = IE*RE = (IC+IB)*RE = IC*RE (approx) = 1.8*2 = 3.6 V.

Now, VBB = RB*IB + VBE + voltage across RE.

6 = RB*20 uA + 0.7 + 3.6 = RB*20 uA + 4.3.

RB*20 uA = 1.7 => RB = 1.7/20 uA = 85 KOhm.

So, my result is none of the above options. Please mention if I am missing something. Thanks in advance.

I also agree with Arnab.

Can anyone please clarify, if we are wrong somewhere.

What is 40 μA? Why it is given here?

Bharadwaz said:   9 years ago
Yeah! I have the same doubt. Why shouldn't we consider input loop to find Rb?

I don't think the procedure to find the Rb changes, if the operating point conditions are giving?
If I am wrong, please correct me.

What is the difference between IB AND IBQ?

Please anyone tell me.

The given solution is incorrect. We have to consider the drop across the emitter resistor. And we have to include it in the input loop equation.

Hi, I'm getting an answer between 100 and 150 whatever the answer is. The given answer is wrong we should consider the emitter resistor.

Please, anyone, explain me.
