Given the BJT transistor characteristics of Fig. 4.121:

a. Draw a load line on the characteristics determined by E = 21 V and R_C = 3 kΩ for a fixed-bias configuration.

---

b. Choose an operating point midway between cutoff and saturation. Determine the value of R_B to establish the resulting operating point.

---

c. What are the resulting values of and ?

---

d. What is the value of β at the operating point?

---

e. What is the value of α defined by the operating point?

---

f. What is the saturation current  for the design?

---

g. Sketch the resulting fixed-bias configuration.

---

h. What is the dc power dissipated by the device at the operating point?

---

i. What is the power supplied by V_CC?

---

j. Determine the power dissipated by the resistive elements by taking the difference between the results of parts (h) and (i).
