Output impedance of an amplifier refers to the resistance that the amplifier presents to its load when it is in operation. It affects how the amplifier interacts with connected devices, influencing voltage levels and power transfer. A low output impedance is generally desirable as it allows the amplifier to drive loads more effectively, maintaining signal integrity and minimizing distortion. In contrast, a high output impedance can lead to signal loss and reduced performance when driving loads.
The output impedance of a common source amplifier circuit is typically high. This is because the common source amplifier uses a resistor to provide biasing, which results in a high output impedance. However, this can be mitigated by using a current source instead of a resistor for biasing.
A common-source (CS) amplifier is a type of field-effect transistor (FET) amplifier configuration that provides voltage amplification. In this setup, the input signal is applied to the gate terminal of the FET, while the output is taken from the drain terminal. It is characterized by its high input impedance and moderate output impedance, making it suitable for interfacing with high-impedance sources. The CS amplifier is widely used in analog circuits due to its simplicity and effectiveness in amplifying signals.
The input impedance of a current shunt feedback amplifier is the open loop impedance of the amplifier divided by 1+(A*beta)
Output of the power amplifier is smaller 0.1 ohms and input of the loudspeaker is more than 4 ohms.
Never haerd of a 10 ohm radio. There is no 10 ohm radio amplifier on the market, when you think that must be the output impedance of the amplifier. The output impedance of a radio amp is always less than 0.5 ohms. Scroll down to related links and go to "Voltage Bridging or impedance bridging - Zout < Zin"
no. input impedance is low & output impedance is high

It's a myth. There is really no 6 Ohm amplifier on the market. And there never was. The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.04 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout
It's a myth. There is really no 8 Ohm amplifier on the market. And there never was. The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.04 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout
Sorry, but there is really no amplifier on the market with 8 ohms output impedance. The output impedance of a power amplifier is always less than 0.5 ohms. We use no impedance matching. We use voltage bridging. Scroll down to related links and look at "Interconnection of two audio units - Power amplifier and passive loudspeaker".

It's a myth. There is really no 16 Ohm guitar amplifier on the market. And there never was. The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.04 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout << Zin. That means the output impedance of the amplifier is much less than the input impedance of the loud speaker. The damping factor Df = Zin / Zout tells you what Zout is. Zout = Zin/Df. If the damping factor Df = 200 and the loudspeaker impedance is Zin = 16 ohms, the output impedance of the amplifier is Zout = 16 / 200 = 0.08 ohms. You see, there is no "16 ohm amplifier" on the market with a16 ohm output impedance. Scroll down to related links and look at "Voltage Bridging or impedance bridging - Zout < Zin".
That should be safe; although you won't get the best out of the loudspeakers. It's a myth. There is really no 16 Ohm amplifier on the market. And there never was.

Sorry, there is no 4 ohm amplifier in the world. It's a myth. A loudspeaker amplifier has an output impedance of less than 0.5 ohm. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout << Zin. That means the output impedance of the amplifier is much less than the input impedance of the loud speaker. The damping factor Df = Zin / Zout tells you what Zout is. Zout = Zin/Df. If the damping factor Df = 200 and the loudspeaker impedance is Zin = 4 ohms, the output impedance of the amplifier is Zout = 4 / 200 = 0.02 ohms. You see, there is no "4 ohm amplifier" on the market with a 4 ohm output impedance. Scroll down to related links and look at "Voltage Bridging or impedance bridging - Zout < Zin".
Sorry, but there is really no 4 ohm amplifier. We use only voltage bridging. The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.04 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout
There is no amplifier with an output impedance of 8 ohms or 4 ohms on the market. All audio amplifiers really have an output impedance of less than 0.1 ohms. Scroll down to related links and look at "Amplifiers, loudspeakers and ohms"
Yes, you can use 2 in series, IE daisy chain them to add up to 8 ohms.For stereo you would need 4 speakers not 2. mono, 2 not one.Most Amplifiers work OK driving to a lower impedance loads anyway so just hook them up. Very high power levels may overheat the amp but at normal volume it should be fine. Something important is added: There are no 8 ohm amplifiers! The amplifier will have an output impedance of around 0.04 ohms. In hi-fi we have always impedance bridging. Zout
