Saturating BJT in emitter follower

Can we saturate the BJT in emitter follower configuration by increasing base current? If yes, what happens in the process? How does increase in collector current decrease \$V_{CE}\$ when there is no ...

Relation between collector current and IF current in an optocoupler?

I need to use an optocoupler to drive BJT. BJT will let 10 A current pass. BJT's have commonly 100 - 150 Bf(current gain) so for 10A transmission I need at least 100 mA current draw from the ...
