[QUOTE="eng_stud, post: 2975182, member: 285822"] [h2]Homework Statement [/h2] Please see the attached drawing. Find levels at A and B. [h2]Homework Equations[/h2] voltage gain in dB = [tex]20log(V_out/V_in)[/tex] dBu defined: [tex]20log(V/0.775V)[/tex] [h2]The Attempt at a Solution[/h2] First question, since I know the level before the first amp, can I disregard the impedance of the source? So the gain and dBu at pos A would be: [tex]V_{1-in}: -70dBu=20log(V_{1-in}/0.775V) \implies 0.775*10^{-70/20}=2.45*10^{-4} [/tex] Gain through first amp: [tex] 20log(100/2.45*10^{-4}) \approx 112 dB[/tex] Level at pos A: [tex]-70dBu+112dB=42dBu[/tex]. is this right or have I done something terribly wrong? I'm not quite sure how to get B. How can I figure out the gain of the second apmlifier, and thus the level at B before it turns to 0 dBu? [/QUOTE]
