Re: Voltage -Divider Biased transistor circuit

i am trying to find resistors values R1 and R2 in a voltage divider

How many mA current?



.

That will give you the voltage across the emitter resistor. Add about 0.1 volts to that and that's where the base voltage should be. That's your starting point.

Late at night, by candle light, "Homer J Simpson" penned this immortal opus:

Uh, germanium transistor?

- YD.

What part of "starting point" did you fail to understand?

Um, 0.6 would be a better guess.

John

Maybe a Germanium Schottky ;-)

Jfet near Idss?

Somebody recently introduced a sort of floating-gate mosfet where gate threshold voltage can be factory programmed to be above zero (enhancement region) or below (depletion) or very close to zero (which I don't have a name for.)

John

Used to be called "depletion-enhancement". Of course, that was before you could buy depletion enhancers on the Internet.
