Interactive Quizzes

Engage in quick quizzes to reinforce what you've learned and check your comprehension.

Question 1

What is the formula for calculating output impedance?

  • R_out = R_load + small signal parameters
  • Z_out = 1 / (g_m + g_o)
  • Z_out = R_load + R_bias

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how output and small signal parameters relate.

Question 2

True or False: Lower output impedance is always better for amplifier performance.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider what happens when the impedance is high.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Given a common collector amplifier with a collector current of 0.75 mA, calculate the output impedance if the small signal parameters g_m = 40 mS and r_o = 200 kΞ©.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Substitute the values carefully into the formula.

Question 2

Consider a scenario where a load resistance of 1kΞ© is connected. If the output impedance calculated is 52Ξ©, what is the effect of this load on the output voltage?

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about voltage division principles and how impedance interacts.
