Print your name clearly and largely: Sa [ AyGns
Instructions:
Read all the problems carefully and thoroughly before you begin working. You are
ailowed to use 1 new sheet of notes (1 page front and back), your note sheet from the
previous exam as well as a calculator. There are 100 total points in this exam plus 10
points bonus (all or nothing, no partial credit), Observe the point value of each problem
and allocate your time accordingly. SHOW ALL WORK AND CIRCLE YOUR FINAL
ANSWER WITH THE PROPER UNITS INDICATED. Write legibly. If I cannot read
it, it will be considered to be a wrong answer. Do all work on the paper provided. Tum
in all scratch paper, even if it did not lead to an answer. Report any and all ethics
violations to the instructor. Good luck!
Sign your name on ONE of the two following cases:
I DID NOT observe any ethical violations during this exam:

9.) (20-points) For the following questions concise answers are required. Points will be
deducted for wordy or unclear statements. In 3 short sentences or less, using simple
diagrams if necessary to explain, answer the following:
a.) (9 points) In a BJT, what is the “base width modulation effect”? Be sure your
answer includes a description of which yoltage change generates this Dele A

10.) (40-points) Given the following video amplifier circuit (takes a video signal from a
75 ohm transmission line represented by R6 and amplifies it into another 75 ohm
transmission line represented by R5), what is the AC voltage gain, Vout/Vin? Assume:
Boc=100, Early voltage, Va is 10V, turn on voltages for all forward biased junctions are
0.7 V, the saturation current, Is= 1,=Se-15A for D1 and D2. You may assume all
capacitors are very large values and are thus, AC shorts. Additionally consider the circuit
to be operated at low frequencies where you can neglect all small signal capacitances.
Also, neglect all resistances that result from quasi-neutral regions. Hints: Use the CVD
model for DC solutions.
