Concept

The circuit of the fixed bias circuit is shown below:

F1 Madhuri Engineering 23.02.2023 D12

The value of collector to emitter voltage is given by:

\(V_{CE}=V_{CC}-I_CR_C\)

where, the value of IC is given by:

\(I_C = β I_B = β \left(\frac{V_{CC}-V_{BE}}{R_B}\right)\)

Calculation

Given, β = 50

RB = 106 Ω, R= 5 kΩ and VCC = 10V

\(I_C = 50 \left(\frac{10-0.7}{10^3}\right)\) mA

\(V_{CE}=10- 50 \left(\frac{10-0.7}{10^3}\right)\times 5\)

VCE = 7.67 V
