What amplitude will the input signal have when connected

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on calculating the input signal amplitude when a microphone with an output impedance of 1 kΩ is connected to an amplifier circuit. Given that the microphone produces a maximum amplitude of 5 mV and the oscilloscope has an input impedance of 1 MΩ, the input signal amplitude will be affected by the impedance matching. The gain formula, Gain = R2/R1, is relevant for determining the amplification in the circuit. The input signal amplitude will be lower than 5 mV due to the impedance mismatch between the microphone and the amplifier.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of impedance in electrical circuits
  • Familiarity with microphone specifications and output characteristics

Homework Statement


An experiment to monitor the sound level in a room is to be conducted using a
microphone.

The microphone (output impedance = 1 kO) produces a maximum amplitude of 5 mV
when connected to an oscilloscope (input impedance = 1 MO). If RI = 1 kO what
amplitude will the input signal have when connected to the amplifier circuit and why?


Homework Equations




Gain = R2/R1

The Attempt at a Solution


I know the above equation an that input impedence should be high and output low
any help appreciated thansk
