What happens when high input signal is given to pnp transistor?

A high signal input to a transistor amplifier gives a high signal output provided it stays linear.


Amplifier voltage gain is 15db input signal is .8V what is output voltage?

54.6dB


When transistor acts as an amplifier then does its output voltage increase or decrease?

That depends on both the input signal and the type of amplifier the transistor is used in.


Differentiate between small signal and large signal amplifier?

The amplifier is supposed to be an electronic circuit. Electronic circuits are nonlinear circuits, which may be modeled in the time domain by means of nonlinear differential equations and nonlinear algebraic equations. The kernel of the solution of the nonlinear equations is the solution of a linear equation system i.e. the nonlinear components and couplings are approximated with linear relations valid for small signals. Iterations are performed until the laws of Kirchhoff are fulfilled. The instant set of linear equations is the small signal model for the amplifier. If the amplifier is excited with a dc power source it assumes an active state called the bias point or quiescent point. If the relation between the input and the output signals of the amplifier is measured to be (almost) linear in the bias point then we assume a small signal amplifier with time independent bias point else we assume a large signal amplifier.


Why power amplifier are called as large signal amplifiers?

in general the CE amplifiers are called low-signal amplifiers as they use only small values of voltage as a source of input which cant be used in practical purposes, whereas power amplifiers deal with practical values of input and output voltages

What is meant by amplifier?

An amplifier amplifies the small input signal to a high signal without changing its freqency.


Why do you need small signal amplifier?

Small signal amplifier is needed because it is used for amplifying input signals having low frequency or amplitude.


What is small signal amplifier?

As the name suggests, it amplifies a small signal. It ususally has a very high input impedance, to avoid affecting the source signal.


What is meant by the term small signal amplifier?

Small signal amplifiers are generally referred to as "Voltage" amplifiers as they convert a small input voltage into a much larger output voltage.


What does amplifier do to a small input signal?

makes it bigger! (or sometimes smaller, or sometimes the same, but with lower output impedance)


Whats the main difference between small signal amplifier and large signal amplifier?

1.Small signal amplifier can be designed easily using s parameter while large signal amplifier not.


Difference between the negative and positive feedbacks?

In Amplifier if feedback is occures when the feedback signals is in phase with the input signal the feedback is known as Positive feedback. And the feedback is occures when the feedback signals is out of phase with the input signal the feedback is known as negative feedback.

What is amplifier and types of amplifiers?

Amplifiers are electronic device that responds to a small input signal (voltage, current, or power) and delivers a larger output signal.


Are amplifiers input or output devices?

An amplifier is both an input and output device. An amplifier, as its name suggests, amplifies a signal, meaning that it makes it stronger. An amplifier takes something as input, like maybe a sound signal, and its output is a more powerful (or louder) version of the same signal.


What is the ratio of the output signal to the input signal of an amplifier that is usually measured in decibels?

Answer is GAIN


What effect does an amplifier have on the frequency of the signal?

A; An amplifier will have no effect on the input frequency however its output may not follow the input frequency at the hi end due to the amplifier limitations
