Instructions; NOTE: MAKEUP EXAMS ARE DESIGNED TO BE SLIGHTLY
HARDER THAN THE ORIGINAL EXAM IN ORDER TO ENCOURAGE EXAM
ATTENDANCE!
Read ail the problems carefially and thoroughly before you begin working. You are
allowed 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. 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} can not read it, it will be considered to be a wrong
answer. Do all work on the paper provided. Turn in all scratch paper, even if it did not
lead to an answer. Report any and all ethics violations to the instructor. Good luck!

1.) (50-points total) As an employee of Texas Instruments Corporation, your boss
asks you to design a npn BJT transistor with a DC Common Emitter Current gain, Bpc,
greater than 1000 and a high frequency response requiring a very low base-emitter
capacitance of 10 pF under the conditions specified below. The transistor will only be
used in an amplifier biased into forward active mode with a collector current of | mA and
a base-emitter voltage of 0.7 V.

base junction? §Oitussian Capacitance

quasi-netral region width which will meet the above design criteria given these
parameters:
Intrinsic concentration n= 1e10 cm?
Relative dielectric constant, K, (or €,=11.0
Area= 25,600 um? (160 um x 160 um)
Minority carrier diffusion coefficient in the base, Da, in the p side of 15 cm’/Sec
