Transistor Amplifiers ANALYSIS OFANAMPLIFIER: (i) Transistor biasing connections must be correct. Base-Emitter should be in forward bias and Base-Collector should be in reverse bias. (ii) Operating point „Q‟ should be adjusted at the center of the load line. (iii) Operating point should be fixed, it should not shift or change with temperature.
Circuit Description: In the amplifier circuit 1) Transistor is an active device, with amplifies the signal basically by amplifying the current. 2) Transistor amplifies the signal by drawing current from DC supply (+ Vcc ) i.e. energy is supplied by + Vcc . 3) Resistor R 1 and R 2 provide voltage divider bias to fix the operating point „Q‟ as shown in the graph 4) Resistor R L is collector load resistor. 5) Resistor R E is connected to stabilize the operating point as explained earlier. 6) Capacitor CE is bypass capacitor, it will bypass AC signal across R E otherwise the gain of amplifier is reduced. 7) Capacitor CC1 and CC 2 are coupling capacitors they will couple AC signal and block DC flow. MULTISTAGE AMPLIFIER: When a large gain is required then single stage transistor amplifier is unable to produce large gain due to limited power dissipation capacity, and distortion may occur if transistor is driven beyond saturation or below cut off. Therefore multistage amplifier Electronics - II
