"B_F" to the value To change the required. To change the value in OrCAD, select Q2N2222 in "Eval" library and right mouse click on transistor to edit the "PSpice Model". Change the value for fr. Resistors can have any value at this point in the design. You don't need to adhere to industry standard values unless you want to (could be helpful later). If you calculate a resistor of 2 ohms or less, then you probably don't need this one. • When calculating the DC operation of your circuit, it could be helpful to use VBEQ = 0.8V. At the higher ICQ values, the B-E voltage increases beyond 0.7V. • There will be differences between your hand calculations and the PSpice results. Enter you hand-calculated design into PSpice and slightly adjust the resistor(s) until you achieve the required specifications in PSpice. When performing a transient analysis, it is best to set "maximum step size" to 0.01 msec and simulate over a range of 3 msec. PART 1: HAND CALCULATIONS A. Submit all hand calculations for your design. It is important to show how you decided on your resistor values and operating conditions. B. What is your calculated power conversion efficiency, ? Show all the steps for this calculation. C. Draw (by hand) your complete schematic with the final resistor values. D. Draw a plot of the AC and DC load lines on the same ic versus VCE graph. Clearly show the x- and y-intercepts, with values, for each. Clearly label the Q point. Load line calculations can assume that = infinite (a = 1). E. In a table, list your DC bias parameters; Vcc, Ico, VCEQ, PD, transistor? F. In a table, and for a value of ß = 200, list your calculated small signal current gain, Ai, Input Resistance, Rin, and Output Resistance, Rout G. What is your maximum peak-to-peak current at the load? Show the calculation.
