from the name itself the common collector has its collector terminal in common with both the input and output circuits of a transistor and the base current is chosen as the input current and the output current is the emitter current
In the common emitter configuration, a class A amplifier, an increase in base voltage (the input) leads to an increase in base-emitter current which leads to a proportionately larger increase in base collector current. That pulls the collector towards the emitter, which decreases the collector voltage. Since the collector is the output, this configuration is an inverting amplifier.
it is a mode of amplifier connection where the base part of the transistor is made common to both input and output.the circuit diagram is as shown below. the transiator gain(represented by the greek letter beta-B) is usually evaluated by the formula B=output current divided by input current. as we know that when the transistor is connected in common base mode the input pert will be emitter and the output part will be collector and we know that the collector current is quiet less than emitter current. as per the formula gain will be less than one. practically we consider emitter current as equal to collector current and hence B approaches 1 in case of common base mode amplifiers.as the gain is very less it is very less used as amplifiers. generally they use common emitter mode for amplification as this mode optimum amount of amplification.
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.
The input current of transistor is approximately equal to output current .Suppose in common base configuration the emmiter current is approximately equal to collector current if neglect the very small value of bae current.Even though the input resistance is not equal to output resistance,the currents are same ,so we can reliase that the transistor transfers resistance to get same currents at both ends.
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.
A bipolar transistor can be used in different configurations in linear electronic design. Most well known is the common emitter CE configuration with a base current as input signal resulting in a collector signal multiplied by the current gain factor. The second configuration is known as the emitter follower or common collector configuration. Here the input signal is in the form of a voltage between the base and the common connection. The output signal is found in the form of a voltage at the emitter with a relative low output impedance. The voltage swing at the input is almost as large at the output where the input impedance equals the product of the current gain factor and the emitter resistance. The third configuration is known as common base CB. Here the input current at the emitter almost equals the output current at the collector. The current gain is nearly equal to 1.
for a BJT to amplify we give input signalif suppose we use BJT in CE configuration input is given at Emitter-Base junction and output is taken at Collector base junctionthe input voltage increases or decreases the forward bias of the E-B junction affecting a change in the base current and we know that collector current is a function of base current collector current also variesso by selectively changing the base current we can effectively change the collector current
In the common emitter configuration, a class A amplifier, an increase in base voltage (the input) leads to an increase in base-emitter current which leads to a proportionately larger increase in base collector current. That pulls the collector towards the emitter, which decreases the collector voltage. Since the collector is the output, this configuration is an inverting amplifier.
A circuit in which the input signal is applied to its base and the collector is earthed (grounded) is known as common collector configuration of BJT (BiPolar Junction Transistor)
it is a mode of amplifier connection where the base part of the transistor is made common to both input and output.the circuit diagram is as shown below. the transiator gain(represented by the greek letter beta-B) is usually evaluated by the formula B=output current divided by input current. as we know that when the transistor is connected in common base mode the input pert will be emitter and the output part will be collector and we know that the collector current is quiet less than emitter current. as per the formula gain will be less than one. practically we consider emitter current as equal to collector current and hence B approaches 1 in case of common base mode amplifiers.as the gain is very less it is very less used as amplifiers. generally they use common emitter mode for amplification as this mode optimum amount of amplification.
output current is emitter current i.e.,Ie
current gain
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.
The percentage of doping in emitter is higher than collector region.hence large current is flow to emitter than collector.
The input current of transistor is approximately equal to output current .Suppose in common base configuration the emmiter current is approximately equal to collector current if neglect the very small value of bae current.Even though the input resistance is not equal to output resistance,the currents are same ,so we can reliase that the transistor transfers resistance to get same currents at both ends.
Three legs on a transistor are represented by these letters E Emitter =you connect your input depending on type of your transisitor neg or pos B Base = you connect control input again depends on type C collector = here comes your amplified output there are 2 types of transistors PNP and NPN there is no current flow from emitter to collector when ther is no control input at the base. a very small opposite current to the emitter polarity make current flow multiplied by the amplification factor of each transistor. if you use a sound frequency input at the base you have amplified sound output at collector if you just use dc you have amplified dc current output. some transistors leak current to kill that unwanted flow through collector use a small resister from emitter to base.
