Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Design a cascode amplifier with a target voltage gain of 50 and outline the component values required for a supply voltage of 12V.

💡 Hint: Consider how adjusting re' can influence the overall gain.

Question 2

Given a typical common-emitter amplifier's cutoff frequency is 1kHz, estimate the expected cutoff frequency for a cascode amplifier configured similarly.

💡 Hint: Think about how the combination of stages affects the cutoff frequency.
