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

💡 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

💡 Hint: Consider the effects of component values on gain.
