(b) ForVCC=18 V, if the operatingQpoint is
at a collector voltage of 10 V and a collector
current of 16 mA, determine theRCandRB
needed to establish the operating point.
7.3.10The two-transistor combination known as Dar-
lington pair or Darlington compound transistor is
often used as a single three-terminal device, as
shown in Figure P7.3.10. Assuming the transistors
to be identical, neglectingICBOof each BJT, find
αCandβCof the combination.
*7.3.11The circuit of Figure P7.3.11 uses apnpBJT
whose characteristics are shown in Figure 7.3.6.
The parameter values areRC = 30 , RB =
6k, VCC=60 V, andVBE=− 0 .7V.
