9. It is required to design a bipolar differential amplifier to provide the largest possible signal to a pair of
10kΩ load resistances. The input differential signal is a sinusoid of 5mV peak amplitude, which is
applied to one input terminal while the other input terminal is grounded. The power supply available is
10V. To determine the required bias current I, derive an expression for the total voltage at each of the
collectors in terms of VCC and I in the presence of the input signal. Then impose the condition that both
transistors should remain well out of saturation with a minimum VCB of approximately 0V. Thus
determine the required value of I. For this design ,what differential gain is achieved? What is the
amplitude of the signal voltage obtained between the two collectors? Assume α≈1.
