In a given circuit, with a supply voltage of 18V and a required output swing of 10V, calculate the necessary resistor values if the target current is 1.2 mA.
💡 Hint: Utilize Ohm's law and the principles of voltage division to approach the solution.
If the input resistance of the amplifier is 15 kΩ, how does this value influence the choice of coupling capacitors when aiming for a lower cutoff frequency of 5Hz?
💡 Hint: The lower the frequency, the larger the capacitance required, which links R and C directly.
