Best Answer

An emitter resistor in a common emitter circuit will cause the stage to experience the effects of degenerative feedback if it is unbypassed. The degenerative feedback reduces gain. This is probably the primary effect in the described circuit.

Why is gain affected when the bypass capacitor is open?

Applied input signal at the base of the amplifier appears across the emitter resistor (RE) due to inter electrode capacitance so it should be bypassed the emitter resistor (RE) through the bypass capacitor (CB). unbypassed signal will be amplified (common emitter amplifier) and reverse back from the emitter to the collector through the base, amplified signal from the emitter to the collector (common emitter amplifier) is 1800 out of phase to the amplified signal from the base to the collector (common base amplifier), so reduced the gain.


What is the effect of emitter resistance in common emitter amplifier?

The gain of a common-emitter amplifier is collector resistor divided by emitter resistor, or hFe, whichever is less. Since hFe depends on temperature, designing the amplifier to be dependent on resistance ratio makes it more stable. As such, the emitter resistance serves to stabilize the amplifier.


What is swamp resistor?

Resistor placed in the emitter lead of a transistor circuit to minimize the effects of temperature on the emitter-base junction resistance.


Why we use emitter resistance in circuits?

The emitter resistor is connected to ground(in the case of an rc coupled amplifier).Also input signal applied at the base is grounded.Then the emitter resistor forms a feedback to the input signal (through the ground return path).So emitter resistor is also called feedback resistor.


Why in common collector amplifier however you change value of resistance not amplifier in voltage?

The question does not quite make sense. It sounds like you are asking why does changing the emitter resistor in a class C common collector amplifier not affect the output voltage? If so, the answer is that the common collector is an emitter follower, meaning that the emitter will follow the base, less the base-emitter junction voltage, within the limits of hFe. The resistor is simply there to ensure output biasing when the base voltage goes low.

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.

Why capacitor reduce gain of ce amplifier?

Where is this capacitor in the circuit?A capacitor across the emitter bias resistor actually increases the AC gain because it bypasses that resistor, by increasing the ratio of collector impedance to emitter impedance which determines the amplifier voltage gain.A capacitor across the base input resistor actually increases the AC gain because it bypasses that resistor, by decreasing the attenuation of the input signal by the input circuit network.

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.
