Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
A CE amplifier has a pole at 1 kHz and a zero at 10 Hz. Describe how the gain changes across these frequencies and sketch a rough Bode plot.
💡 Hint: Remember to identify the behavior before reaching the zero and after it, then relate how the pole reacts.
How would the design of a practical CE amplifier differ if a larger capacitor is used? Assess its influence on the gain.
💡 Hint: Consider the overall role of capacitance in determining circuit behavior.
