i don't understand the difference between low ,high,midfrequency analysis of transistor amplifiers...what's midband analysis?
thanks!what are high pass and low pass filters?ratn_kumbh said:Frequency analysis of transistor amplifier shows behavior of amplifier at different frequency. Like at low frequency effect of coupling & bypass capacitor becomes significant. So gain of amplifier changes with freq. In this region of frequency amplifier acts as High pass filter
At high frequency internal capacitance of transistor affect the operation of amplifier.So here also gain of amplifier changes with freq. And In this region of frequency amplifier acts as low pass filter.
in the midband(i.e. between low & high frequency) Gain of amp is almost constant. All capacitances are ignored in this region. Gain depends on value of passive element(resistors). So gain is independent of frequency
High pass filters are those circuits which allow higher frequency component of any i/p signal to pass & blocks lower frequency. And just opposite for Low pass filter. See the attachment. in low freq section gain is low and it increases with frequency. Thus allowing higher frequencies in that region to pass. & thus in low freq region it is acting as high pass filter. And same analysis for high frequency part where gain is decreasing with frequency. In attachment Bandwidth of amplifier is that portion which has Constant gain.calmel said:what are high pass and low pass filters?
Transistor amplifiers work by using the properties of a transistor to control the flow of electrical current. The transistor acts as a switch, allowing a small input signal to control a larger output signal. This amplification process is achieved through a combination of biasing and amplification stages within the amplifier circuit.
There are several types of transistor amplifiers, including common emitter, common collector, and common base configurations. Each type has its own advantages and is suitable for different applications. Additionally, there are also different classes of amplifiers, such as Class A, B, AB, and C, which have varying levels of efficiency and distortion.
The gain of a transistor amplifier can be calculated by dividing the output voltage by the input voltage. The gain can also be expressed in decibels (dB) using the formula 20log(Vout/Vin). It is important to note that the gain of a transistor amplifier is affected by factors such as the type of amplifier, the transistor's characteristics, and the circuit design.
Biasing is a process used in transistor amplifiers to establish a stable operating point for the transistor. This ensures that the transistor is operating in its linear region and is not being overdriven, which can cause distortion. Biasing also helps to improve the stability and linearity of the amplifier circuit.
There are several ways to improve the performance of a transistor amplifier, such as using proper biasing techniques, using high-quality and matched transistors, and optimizing the circuit design for the desired frequency range. Additionally, incorporating negative feedback can also improve the linearity and stability of the amplifier. It is important to carefully consider all aspects of the amplifier design to achieve the best performance.
