AI Thread Summary
To modify PNP BJT voltages in Multisim 13, users are advised to simulate a standard 2N3904 BJT in a common emitter (CE) circuit to observe typical Vbe and Vce(sat) values, which should approximate the desired voltages of VEB=0.7V and VECsaturation=0.2V. Instead of altering the model directly, it is suggested to first understand the existing parameters through simulation. After conducting the simulation, users are encouraged to share their circuit designs and the reasons for wanting to modify the model. This approach helps in achieving accurate results without unnecessary modifications. Understanding the default characteristics of BJTs in simulation is crucial for effective circuit design.

Hi!
I want to simulate some circuits with PNP BJTs. I was given voltages VEB=0.7V and VECsaturation=0.2V so my question is how can I modify PNP BJT to use these voltages?

Don't. Just do a simple sim of a 2N3904 BJT in a CE circuit and look at what Vbe and Vce(sat) are. They will be close to the values you desire.

After that, post the circuit and why you want to modify the model.
 

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
