What do you mean by common emitter configuration and biasing pnp transistors?

A common emitter BJT transistor has the emitter ground. So u measure input voltage at base with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter and also u measure the output voltage at collector with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter. Hence, the emitter is common and thus the name.

What are the wires transistors and circuits in a computer called?
The common name is electronics or microelectronics. These resistors, diodes, capacitors, and integrated circuits (chips) are typically mounted on cards or a "motherboard."
What does the abbreviation RCA stand for and mean?
RCA stand for Recording Corporation of America. It is a developed standard for common plugs/cables of a certain configuration.
What file in windows containing virtual memory settings?
In all modern versions of Windows these settings are in the registry, not in configuration files. An interface is provided for the more common settings but should only be changed by someone who understands the implications. Anyone who does not know how to acces these settings clearly should not be touching them.
Why CE configuration is most common?
CC gives only current gain, but no voltage gain; gives only limited power gainCB gives only voltage gain, but no current gain; gives only limited power gainCE gives both voltage and current gain; gives large power gain
What is the blue knob on an older truck air brake system?
The most common configuration was so that you could release the tractor spring brakes while keeping the trailer spring brakes applied even when you had air supplied to the trailer. Which was a bit pointless, seeing as the Johnson bar was always there for the same purpose. But not all of them served that purpose - there were five different uses for that blue knob.
What is a function of baising?
what is a function of Biasing and explain it's working ? why the Common Emitter Configuration is use as Amplifier ? Explain in Detail ?
Which out of either the cccb or the ce configurations of a transistor is best and why?
The common emitter configuration works best because of the way the segments of transistors are biased, and the fact that there are more carriers in the collector than in the emitter.
Which transistor configuration has the highest input impedance?
Common Emitter Configuration has maximum impedance.
In a common emitter transistor the primary purpose of a resistor connected to the emitter is to?
The emitter resistor in a common emitter configuration provides negative feedback to the transistor, reducing both its voltage gain and distortion.
What is the relationship between common base and common collector?
It all depends which lead is connected to the common power supply, Emitter, base or collector. For most amplification needs using NPN transistors, common emitter is used. Other applications are used for current control and regulation circuits.
Why biasing is needed at all?
Biasing is used in a transistor amplifier circuit in order to place the transistor as nearly as possible in the center of its linear region. Transistors have cutoff, linear, and saturation regions. Too little bias current, and you enter cutoff - Too much, and you saturate. Both conditions cause distortion when you attempt to use the transistor as an amplifier, as opposed to a switch.
What configuration commonly employed in bipolar transistor amplifier?
Common Emitter - Class A Amplifier.
Which transistor configuration is mostly used?
common emitter configuration is use for amplification purpose while common collector is use as buffer as its op is same as ip..
For common collector configuration op current is?
output current is emitter current i.e.,Ie
What is Current amplification factor in common emitter configuration?
comparerission between CB,CC&CE
What will happen if instead of npn transister pnp is used?
It really depends on the configuration of the circuit. A transistor can be connected in any of at least 3 configurations: common base, common emitter, and common collector. Each of these type of configurations determines where the source of electron flow is connected. After that, the biasing configuration needs to be determined, and this will change depending on whether you are using an NPN or PNP transistor. In the simpler biasing configurations, swapping a NPN for a PNP or vice versa will prevent current from flowing as the collector, base, and/or emitter will be reverse or forward-biased incorrectly. You would then either be blocking currently flow, or possibly causing a short circuit. Again, it depends on the configuration. Generally speaking, it is not a good idea. One potential result is you can damage the transistor or even destroy it or possibly damage other components in the circuit.
What does it mean when you say a transistors junction is saturated?
It's called saturation because the collector voltage cannot go any lower. You've done all you can do with your base current (in Common Emitter configuration) to lower the collector voltage and support the collector current.
