Assume that the diode characteristic is described by Eq. (7.17)(ignore the +1 terms) for = 1.4, = 2 Times 1036 A, and Vv = 0.0259 V. Specify Rv for the required gain and VB to remove the constant term in Eq.(9.120).(Note: VB could be obtained with a voltage divider connected to the negative power supply) Figure P9.60 where is called the voltage equivalent of temperature and has a magnitude about 25.0 mV at T = 300 K. where and is the amplitude of nth harmonic.
