Question 1

What is the formula for the voltage gain of a common emitter amplifier?

  • A = -g_m * R_C / (1 + g_m * R_E)
  • A = g_m * R_C / (1 - g_m * R_E)
  • A = g_m * R_E / R_C

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for the relationship between transconductance and the resistors involved.

Question 2

True or False: A larger emitter resistor will always increase voltage gain.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the effects of component values on gain.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Determine the effects on voltage gain if you increase $R_E$ from 1kΞ© to 10kΞ©, while keeping $g_m$ and $R_C$ constant. Explain your reasoning.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider how changing resistances affects the gain formula.

Question 2

If an amplifier circuit has a fixed input signal and you modify the output load resistance, what will be the impact on the voltage gain? Discuss the underlying principles.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about the output characteristics and load effect in circuits.
