BJT in Saturation Mode Section 4.5

Outline Modes of Operations Review of BJT in the active Region BJT in Saturation Mode

Modes of Operation BE\BCForward BiasedReverse Biased Forward BiasedSaturationActive Reverse BiasedReverse Active Mode Cut-Off Applications: 1. Saturation and cut-off mode are used in digital circuits. 2. Active mode is used in the amplifier design.

Extension of a PNP transistor (NPN transistor) (PNP transistor) 1.Emitter-base junction is forward biased. 2.Holes are injected into the base. 3.Base-collector junction is reverse Biased. 4.Injected holes in the base is swept across the base-collector junction by the electric field.

BJT Current Assumption: BEJ: Forward Biased BCJ: Reverse Biased

Large Signal Model of a BJT Called “large” signal model because this model is applicable even if V BE changes from 300 mV to 800 mV

Saturation Mode

BJT in Saturation Mode Key assumption so far: BE=Forward Biased BC=Reverse Biased What happens when these assumptions are not true ? (A transistor in the active mode of operation)

Review: Forward Bias Diode Depletion region shrinks due to charges from the battery. The electric field is weaker. Majority carrier can cross the junction via diffusion; Greater diffusion current. Current flows from P side to N side E

Hole Current into the Collector A reverse biased BCJ keeps holes in the base. But as BCJ becomes forward biased, the strong electric field which opposes of the movement of holes into the collector is weakened. There is now a hole current into the collector. Net Result: heavy saturation leads to a sharp rise in the base current and a rapid fall in β.

A Large Signal Model of the BJT The net collector current decreases as the collector enter into saturation

General Rules As a rule of thumb, we permit soft saturation with VBC <400 mV because the current in the B-C junction is negligible, provided that various tolerances in the component values do not drive the device into deep saturation. For a device in soft saturation or active region, we approximate I C as I s exp(V BE /V T ) In the deep saturation region, the collector-emitter voltage approaches a constant value called V CE, SAT (about 200 mV).

Voltage and Current Polarities of NPN and PNP transistors A “fat” voltage between collector and emitter voltage places a transistor in the active region! A “skinny” voltage between collector and emitter voltage places a transistor in the active region!

Design Problem How do you get a transistor out of Saturation?

Use 2n3904 npn BJT in Simulation (Error!, put 2n3904 here!)
