Fixed Base Bias Circuit This is common

emitter (CE) configuration

1st step: Locate capacitors and replace them with an open circuit

2nd step: Locate 2 main loops which; BE loop CE loop

Fixed Base Bias CircuitCE Loop AnalysisVCC – ICRC – VCE = 0VCE = VCC – ICRC

But IC = βIB

VCE = βDC((VCC - VBE)/RB)

Fixed Base Bias Circuit DISADVANTAGE

Unstable – because it is too dependent on β and produce width change of Q-point

For improved bias stability , add emitter resistor to dc bias.
