3. A silicon based n-p-n bipolar transistor is uniformly doped with NB = 5 * 1016cm-3 and Nc = 8* 1015cm-3. The metallurgical base width is XBo = 0.50um with VBE = OV and VcB = OV. (a) Determine the expected avalanche B-C breakdown voltage. Refer the figure 7.15. (b) Calculate the value of VCB at which punch-through occurs.
