15 Can anyone explain how the Emitter resistance RE stablize the
DC bias Point ? ( commom emitter ). Something about negetive
feedback ? Is this stabilization is instead active bias ?

Posts: 373 Location: Germany RE is used as a negative feedback.
The current gain of Beta increases with the operating temperature
of the BJT. Therefore Ic (Collector current) raises. This current flows
through RE and as a result the voltage drop on RE increases - Ve becomes
higher. Vb is usually kept constant in common emitter topology (By means
of a voltage divider), hence Vbe decreases, which turns the BJT more
to off state and reduces the Ic. This mechanism can be used instead
of active bias.
