a. Testing \beta R_{E}>10 R_{2}.
(210)(0.68 kΩ) > 10(10 kΩ)
142.8 kΩ >100 kΩ (satisfied)
we have
V_{B}=\frac{R_{2}}{R_{1}+R_{2}} V_{C C}=\frac{10 k \Omega}{90 k \Omega+10 k \Omega}(16 V )=1.6 VV_{E}=V_{B}-V_{B E}=1.6 V -0.7 V =0.9 V
I_{E}=\frac{V_{E}}{R_{E}}=\frac{0.9 V }{0.68 k \Omega}=1.324 mA
r_{e}=\frac{26 mV }{I_{E}}=\frac{26 mV }{1.324 mA }= 1 9 . 6 4 \Omega
b. The ac equivalent circuit is provided in Fig. 5.34 . The resulting configuration is different from Fig. 5.30 only by the fact that now
R_{B}=R^{\prime}=R_{1} \| R_{2}=9 k \OmegaThe testing conditions of r_{o} \geq 10\left(R_{C}+R_{E}\right) and r_{o} \geq 10 R_{C} are both satisfied. Using the appropriate approximations yields
Z_{b} \cong \beta R_{E}=142.8 k \OmegaZ_{i}=R_{B}\left\|Z_{b}=9 k \Omega\right\| 142.8 k \Omega
= 8.47 kΩ
c. Z_{o}=R_{C}=2.2 k \Omega
d. A_{v}=-\frac{R_{C}}{R_{E}}=-\frac{2.2 k \Omega}{0.68 k \Omega}=- 3 . 2 4
