Summary: BJT Performance Requirements
• High gain (dc >> 1)
 One-sided emitter junction, so emitter efficiency   1
• Emitter doped much more heavily than base (NE >> NB)
 Narrow base, so base transport factor T  1
• Quasi-neutral base width << minority-carrier diffusion length (W << LB)
• IC determined only by IB (IC  function of VCE,VCB)
 One-sided collector junction, so quasi-neutral base width W does
not change drastically with changes in VCE (VCB)
• Based doped more heavily than collector (NB > NC)
(W = WB – xnEB – xnCB for PNP BJT)
