Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

You are tasked with designing a two-stage CE amplifier with an expected gain of 200. However, simulations show that actual gain is only 80 due to loading effects. Identify possible design changes to improve performance and explain your reasoning.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Focus on how impedance and buffering can affect amplifier stages.

Question 2

You cascade two amplifiers with known cutoff frequencies. After cascading, the upper cutoff frequency appears to drop significantly. Formulate an expression to find the new cutoff frequency and describe the elements that affect this calculation.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how each element interacts in the frequency domain.
