(a) Draw a load line on the characteristics determined by VCC = 12 V and RC = 1.5 k for a fixed bias configuration.

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

(c) What are the resulting values of ICQ and VCEQ?

(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 (ICsat) 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?
