the amplification factor is a function of β. Higher β causes a higher amplification.

Why base in grounded in common emitter transistor as amplifier?
With a common emitter amplifier it's the emitter that is usually grounded.
What are the parameters of a transistor?
# parameter are usually the base current ib,collector current ic,emitter current ie,collector emitter voltagevce,base emitter voltagevbe,collector base voltagevcb which decide the operation &output of the transistor
What are different names of CE amplifier?
what is the other name of common emitter amplifier
A PNP transistor is connected in a circuit so that the collector-base junction remains reverse biased and the emitter-base junction is forward biased This transistor can be used as a power amplifier?
Yes1
What is the working of a Darlington amplifier?
it is a combination of two transistors connected in series. the emitter of transistor t1 is connected to the base of transistor t2 . now the total circuit acts as a single transistor. this combination will gives high gain, as the gain is multiplied.
How does using a transistor with a different beta affect the operation of the common emitter amplifier?
Gain, in the common emitter amplifier, is beta (hFe) or collector resistance divided by emitter resistance, whichever is less. Substituting a different beta (hFe) transistor will affect gain, if hFe is less, or increase stability and design margin, if hFe is greater.

How should the two transistor junctions be biased for proper transistor amplifier operation?
Emitter-Base junction should be forward biased.Collector-Base junction should be reverse biased.
What configuration commonly employed in bipolar transistor amplifier?
Common Emitter - Class A Amplifier.
How transister work as amplifier?
A transistor works as am amplifier by virtue of the fact that you can control the current in one path with a smaller current in another path. In a typical class A (common emitter) configuration, a certain current from base to emitter will create a corresponding current from collector to emitter. Increasing or decreasing the base-emitter current will cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the collector-emitter current, by a ratio that is defined as hFe, or beta-gain. Of course, this means that you have to properly bias the transistor, and understand the nature of hFe. You can operate a transistor in cutoff mode or saturated mode if you exceed the hFe limits. Within the limits, a properly biased transistor exhibits a (generally) linear operation.
What if base current is zero in a transistor used as an amplifier with common emitter configuration?
output current is zero
What is the difference between a transistor used as a switch and an amplifier?
A transistor used as a switch is operated in saturated mode, where the ratio of base-emitter current over collector-emitter current is far more than hFe, or beta gain. The transistor is either fully on or fully off in this mode. A transistor used as an amplifier is operated in linear mode, where the ratio of base-emitter current over collector-emitter current is equal to or less than hFe, or beta gain. The transistor is partially on in this mode, and is operating as a current controlled current sink.
Difference between cascode and cascade amplifier?
cascade: the output of one amplifier stage is connected to the input of another amplifier stages, it's also connected in series. cascode: it said to be cascode, when it has one transistor on the top of another where a common emitter transistor drives a common base transistor.
What are the parameters of a transistor?
# parameter are usually the base current ib,collector current ic,emitter current ie,collector emitter voltagevce,base emitter voltagevbe,collector base voltagevcb which decide the operation &output of the transistor
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 are different names of CE amplifier?
what is the other name of common emitter amplifier
What is the explanation for the working CE BJT amplifier?
In electronics, a common-emitter amplifier is one of three basic single-stage bipolar-junction-transistor (BJT) amplifier topologies, typically used as a voltage amplifier. In this circuit the base terminal of the transistor serves as the input, the collector is the output, and the emitter is common to both (for example, it may be tied to ground reference or a power supply rail), hence its name.
