Given the attached circuit find (a) The DC bias point and small signal midband AC model for the transistor. Draw the small signal midband AC equivalent circuit.
(b) Find the small signal midband AC voltage gain vo/vi and the overall voltage gain vo/vs (c) Find the small signal midband AC input and output resistances.

The answers are given in the back of the book.
(a)
Ic = 5.6mA, gm = 215mA/B
r(pie)=232 Ohms
(b)

vo/vi = 0.88 and vo/vs = 0.44

(c) Ri = 1k Ohm and Ro = 15 Ohms

Anyone know how to get these answers? I started off by getting Rth and Vth

VBB = [R2/(R1+R2)]Vcc = (6.8kohms/9.8kohms)5V = 3.47V

RBB = R1||R2 = 2081.6 Ohms

but I don't know how to do the rest and I really need to know how. Thank you.

 

Rs in that circuit is 3k Ohms not 5 sorry.

 

That transistor has no base connection. Even after you add one, it is will not be an emitter follower. It looks like it could be intended to be a common emitter amplifier, but the bias will have the transistor saturated. I suspect it is drawn wrong.
Edit: I think maybe you meant to draw a PNP, with the emitter where your collector is now. Then it would be an emitter follower, after you add the base connection.

 

you're right...this is what it is supposed to look like, the book says its an emitter follower

 

Beta is equal to 50

 

If I knew how to get the collector current I could find the other two values.

 

As I said, even with the base connection, that is not an emitter follower. See below.Also, see this section of the All About Circuits E-Book.

 

My textbook is wrong then...but i still need to know how to do this problem
