Question 1

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

  • A = - gm * RE / RC
  • A = - gm * RC / (1 + gm * RE)
  • A = gm * RE / RC

💡 Hint: Remember the roles of gm and resistors in the gain calculation.

Question 2

True or False: The presence of an emitter resistor (RE) always increases voltage gain.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about the dual role of RE in the circuit.
