Circuit for single tuned amplifier?

A single tuned amplifier basically consists of a tuned circuit (which may consist of an IFT or a parallel tuned LC circuit) connected to the collector of an amplifier circuit (in Common Emitter configuration). The tuned circuit is designed to get a resonant frequency equal to the incoming frequency signal that arrives at the base. The Single Tuned Amplifier gives maximum amplification to that particular incoming frequency which matches the resonant frequency of the tuned circuit and attenuates all other frequencies. Thus it gives sharp selectivity with a high Q-factor.


What is the difference between a CB amplifier and CE and emitter-follower?

I think you mean a common emitter amplifier, which is an amplifier of voltage. Emitter-follower or common collector amplifiers are used to match impedances, or to amplify power or current. The emitter-follower is a type of common emitter circuit that has a resistor between the emitter and ground. The output signal is taken from the point between the emitter and its resistor.


Which bjt transistor amplifier can be used as a voltage buffer?

the common collector can use as voltage buffer


Why is common emitter is greater than common collector?

Common-emitter gives more voltage gain because a common-collector amplifier has a voltage gain of 1. But a common-collector can have a power gain because the input impedance is much more than the output impedance.


Why output of common emitter amplifier is inverted?

In a common emitter amplifier, the base-emitter current causes a corresponding collector-emitter current, in the ratio of hFe (beta gain) or collector resistance over emitter resistance, which ever is less. Since this ratio is usually greater than one, the differential collector current is greater than the differential base current. This results in amplification of the base signal. As you increase the base-emitter current, the collector-emitter current also increases. This results in the collector being pulled towards the emitter, with the result that the differential collector voltage decreases. This results in inversion of the base signal.

Why use a npn transistor in a common emitter bjt single stage amplifier circuit?

You can use an npn or a pnp bjt in a common emitter amplifier circuit. The decision of which one to use is based on whether you want the collector and base to be more positive (npn) or more negative (pnp) than the emitter.
