37. Frequency Response of CE and CS Amplifiers (Part C)

The chapter discusses the frequency response of common source (CS) and common emitter (CE) amplifiers, including their equivalent small signal models and how to derive their output characteristics. The interaction between C-R and R-C circuits is analyzed to determine cutoff frequencies and gain, emphasizing the relationships between pole locations in the transfer function and the frequency response in the s-domain. Additionally, the importance of coupling capacitors in amplifier design is highlighted, stressing the need for numerical examples and design guidelines in subsequent lessons.
