Demonstrates NPN transistor output characteristics.

Circuit Summary

Collector current is observed across a range of Vce and base drive values.

Expected Behavior

  • You should see distinct curves for each base current level.

How To Run

  1. Open Simulation-NPN-characteristics.kicad_sch in KiCad.
  2. Click Simulate and run the configured analyses.
  3. Add probes to the key nodes to view the expected behavior.

Notes

  • Compare active vs. saturation regions.
