4. 4.

   Feedback in amplifiers is primarily used for which of the following?

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider the role of feedback in maintaining performance.

5. 5.

   You're designing a circuit that transmits signals over a long distance with significant electrical noise. Which signaling method would you choose and why?

   Hint

   Think of how signals are affected in noisy environments.

6. 6.

   You are measuring the effect of feedback on an amplifier. If you introduce negative feedback, how would you expect the frequency response to change?

   Hint

   Consider how feedback affects signal clarity and gain.
