Transfer Function

A mathematical representation that describes the relationship between input and output signals in a linear time-invariant system, often used for analyzing the frequency response of amplifiers.

Cutoff Frequency

The frequency at which the output signal power falls to half its value, which corresponds to a drop of 3 dB in voltage; it defines the operational bandwidth of amplifiers.

Pole

A frequency at which the gain of the amplifier reduces, influencing the stability of the circuit; poles are critical for determining the amplifier's frequency response.
