III. Procedure

A. Theoretical Analysis

Given the schematic diagram shown in Figure 1, calculate the BJT voltage-divider biased DC parameters (VB, VC, VE, VCE, VBE, VCEQ,IB,Ic,IE, and ICQ) with assumption hFE = 50. Enter the calculated values in Table 1 on the worksheet.

Note: VB, VC, VE are referred to point voltages, and they are quantified with respect the circuit reference (i.e., ground); while, VCE, VBE,are known as voltage drop across two points.
