Stabilization against variations in
𝑉𝐵𝐸 and 𝛽
Two other sources of instability are 𝑉𝐵𝐸 and 𝛽 variation with Temperature.
The effect of variation of 𝑉𝐶𝐸 is negligible in the active region of the transistor
The variation of 𝐼𝑐 with respect to 𝑉𝐵𝐸 , keeping 𝐼𝑐𝑜 and β constant, is represented by
𝑆 β
the stability factor S’ = δ 𝐼𝑐 /δ 𝑉𝐵𝐸 = 𝑅 +𝑅 ( )
𝑐 𝑒 1+β
The rate of change of 𝐼𝑐 with respect to ‘β’, keeping 𝐼𝑐𝑜 and 𝑉𝐵𝐸 constant, is given by
the stability factor S’’. Thus

Problems
Compensation techniques
Stabilization here means, changing the inputs according to the output and is
independent of temperature
And we use both techniques for max bias and thermal stabilization
Diode Compensation for Ico
If the diode and transistor are made of
same material, the reverse saturation
current in diode (𝐼0 ) increases with
increase in Temperature at the same rate
as the transistor’s collector saturation
current 𝐼𝑐0

Introduction
• The biasing of a transistor is purely a dc operation.
• So the output signal of an amplifier has the exact shape and frequency as the
input signal.
