Discussion Reply: differential equationDiscussion Reply: differential equation
Hi, Class. We’ve talked quite a bit in weeks 3 and 4 here (in particular in the Lectures and Engineering Applied Exercises) about how sometimes a mathematical model is not easily solved analytically or with software. You might wonder: where do these wildly complicated differential equations come from if they’re too complicated to solve? Well–just […]
Discussion: Basic Operations and UsesDiscussion: Basic Operations and Uses
Field effect transistors are voltage controlled devices that are used in modern electrons. They have the advantage of high input impedance and fast switching times making them ideal in today high speed switching applications. Each student will report on one topic from the list below and explain in your OWN words the basic operation, […]

Amplifiers have many useful applications in electronics. Similarly, transistors can be used for more than just amplification. What are some of the types of amplifiers and what are their classifications? In your own words compare the applications of different amplifier types and classes. Explain what is meant by ‘TFT’ that you always find in […]

Your solution should include all mathematical steps as well as explanations in your own words. You can type this with the equation editor right here in the reply box, you can use an image file to show hand-written work, or you can make a video using the media tool to provide your explanations! I encourage […]
Discussion Real-World Context: Exponential Growth of a PopulationDiscussion Real-World Context: Exponential Growth of a Population
Our mission this week is to see the different applications of calculus in action. We will research and make connections to calculus in Engineering through any of the methods applied during the term. Share an engineering (or other) application of differential equations. Identify the differential equation in math notation, an image of a graph, or […]
Discussion Reply bias voltageDiscussion Reply bias voltage
Why is emitter bias more stable than base bias? An emitter bias is bias voltage applied to the emitter electrode of a transistor. Aside of having an emitter bias being independent of the BDC, an emitter bias has a gain of 1 or less than 1 means that it can never oscillate because oscillation […]

Discussion Reply: emitter bias more stable than base biasDiscussion Reply: emitter bias more stable than base bias
Why is emitter bias more stable than base bias? Emitter bias is more stable than base bias because it involves biasing the emitter terminal of the transistor to a fixed voltage, while the base-to-emitter voltage is varied. This method provides negative feedback that stabilizes the operating point of the transistor, making it less sensitive […]
