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.

not sure if this is the answer : the output voltage will be much larger than the input voltage.


How a transistor work as an amplifier and as a switch?

"Transistor" name itself revels it transfers resistance from its input to its output (Transfer of resistance). Input resistance varies when input voltage varies, similarly output resistance varies and this leads to voltage variation at the output. Thus input to output voltage variation is called amplification. this is how transistor can be used as an amplifier. If input voltage is minimum output voltage becomes maximum i.e. its output resistance becomes maximum in common emitter configuration. Thus if no voltage is applied at the input its collector resistance becomes infinite or as if open circuit. Similarly if input current is increased output current increases and out put can behave as short circuit. This is how output current can be switched off or on using no input current or with minute input current. Unlike a digital device, the transistor is an analogue device which can be switch on/off to maximum or any gradient in between. Providing a small AC voltage to the base creates an amplified analogue of this signal across the emitter and collector.


Why does amplifier gain reduce?

Since we know that the amplifier gain is given by A=Output voltage/input voltage (where A is the amplifier gain) So, it can be written as output voltage=A*input voltage, so when the output part increases gain increases but when input part increases gain decreases


What is invertion?

An inverting amplifier is one where the output is an inverted function of the input. The Class A transistor amplifier, also known as common-emitter, is inverting. As you increase the voltage on the base, the output voltage on the collector decreases. The operational amplifier has an inverting and a non-inverting input. In typical bridge mode, the output is inverted with respect to the (inverting) input, and the non-inverting input is used to reject common-mode input signals by moving the virtual ground point as needed.


What is voltage gain?

Voltage gain is the ratio of the output voltage of an amplifier to its input voltage.


What is an emitter follower?

This is a particular transistor amplifier configuration. In general, the input signal is applied to the base, the collector is connected to a supply voltage, and the output is taken between the emitter and power supply common. One of the characteristics of the emitter follower is the output voltage "follows" the input, but the output is reduced by the Vbe voltage (the voltage drop between base and emitter, approximately 0.7 V for a silicon bipolar transistor).


What is voltage shunt amplifier?

In Voltage Shunt Amplifier, the Output voltage is supplied in parallel with the Input voltage through the feedback network.


What is the basic difference between transistor as an amplifier and a step up transformer?

The output power of an amplifier is greater than its input power, whereas the output power of a transformer is almost the same as its input power. In other words, an amplifier increases acts to increase power, whereas a transformer only increases voltage.


What is non inverting amplifier?

The amplifier whose output is inphase with it input means if we consider voltage amplification then there is zero phase shift in input and output


What is voltage offset?

Input offset voltage is the equivalent voltage at the input of an operational amplifier. If an amplifier has a voltage gain of ten and an input offset voltage of 10 microvolts, a level of 100 microvolts will appear at the output with no input. Manufacturers try to design an op amp so the input offset voltage is as small as possible to minimize this error voltage at the output of the amplifier, especially for applications where small voltages are being amplified.
