    Vcc and Vbb?

    BJT biasing ok the first person to respond to your question made a typo when he changed your Vbb to Vdd. Vbb, Vcc, and Vee have to do with your biasing of a bjt in a circuit. If not biased properly then the bjt will not allow current to flow through it causing the circuit to fail. NPN bjt is...

    Confused

    Jobs Well if you're looking for the money and can still put in time to get certs. I'd say go with cisco. They are always looking for more people with certs in their fields because not many people go that route. Most people claim the cisco rout is to hard. I've heard that they pay better than...

    double the input voltage

    Info Nigel I say he has had enough hints. If he is in an electronics class and is this far in. He should be able to do the mathematical equations to figure this out and he should be able to figure out what is wrong with his idea himself. Personally I'm beginning to think he is just trying to...

    electronics oddity question.

    CD player power adapter from car cigarete lighter socket

    FETs

    Hey fellas I passed the bjts with flying colors and am now onto FETs aka JFETs and MOSFETs. If anybody knows any good links with lots of information on operating perameters and biasing or if you personally have any info for me it would really help my studying.
