The unbypassed emitter resistor (Re) in a transistor amplifier circuit serves to stabilize the operating point by providing negative feedback. It improves thermal stability by counteracting variations in transistor parameters due to temperature changes. Additionally, Re enhances linearity and reduces distortion by preventing the transistor from entering saturation during operation. This resistor also plays a role in setting the gain of the amplifier, as it influences the overall input and output impedance.
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.

Gain in a CE configuration of a BJT is collector resistance divided by emitter resistance, subject to the limit of hFe. The emitter bypass capacitor will have lower impedance at high frequency, so the gain will be higher at higher frequency, making this a high-pass 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, hence its name. An analogous circuit called the common source is constructed using field-effect transistors Common-emitter amplifiers generally have a very high gain which can vary widely from one transistor to the next, as it is a strong function of both temperature and bias current, making the actual gain unpredictable. Stability is another problem associated with such high gain circuits, due to any unintentional positive feedback that may be present. Other problems associated with the circuit are the low input dynamic range imposed by the small-signal limit and the high distortion resulting if this is exceeded. One common way of alleviating these issues is with the use of negative feedback, particularly with emitter degeneration. Emitter degeneration typically refers to the addition of a small resistor (or any impedance) between the emitter of the transistor and ground. The effect of this is to reduce the overall transconductance Gm = gm of the circuit by a factor of gmRE + 1, making the voltage gain depend more on the ratio of the resistors than the transistor's characteristics: The distortion and stability characteristics of the circuit are thus improved, but at the expense of a reduction in gain. Common-emitter circuits are used to amplify weak voltage signals, such as the faint radio signals detected by an antenna. When used in radio frequency circuits, it is common to replace the load resistor with a tuned circuit. This is done to limit the bandwidth to a narrow band centered around the intended operating frequency. More importantly it also allows the circuit to operate at higher frequencies as the tuned circuit can be used to resonate any inter-electrode and stray capacitances, which normally limit the frequency response. Common emitters are also commonly used as low noise amplifiers. At low frequencies and using a simplified Hybrid-Pi model, the following small signal characteristics can be derived. If the emitter degeneration resistor is not present, RE = 0 Ω. According to these formulas and in agreement with the previous discussion, when RE is increased the input resistance is increased and the gain is reduced. {| ! ! Definition ! Expression ! Current gain ! Voltage gain ! Input resistance ! Output resistance |} The bandwidth of the common emitter amplifier tends to be low, due to high capacitance resulting from the Miller effect. The base-collector capacitance is effectively multiplied by the factor 1 − Av, thus increasing the total input capacitance and lowering the overall bandwidth. The discussion of bandwidth parallels that in the article on the common source amplifier. A fix for this bandwidth problem is the cascode amplifier. == ==

The voltage gain is a measure of the amplified output available at the collector terminal divided by the voltage measured on the base. This if you have 10 mV applied to the base and voltage of 1 volt at the collector the voltage gain is 100ANSWERThe maximum voltage gain of a common emitter amplifier is dependant on the transistor itself. Some have only a very small voltage gain such as in Radio Frequency Power transistors. These are almost all used as common emitter circuits for bipolar transistors or common source for FETs.. On the other hand some darlington transistors can have common emitter gains of hundreds of thousands. If the stage has an unbypassed emitter resistor, the voltage gain is equal to Rload/RE, (Rload is the parallel value of the resistance from collector to the supply and the resistance of the load).If the emitter resistance is bypassed, the value of resistance to be used for RE is the internal Re which is equal to 25mV/Ie
emitter collects output current produced in resister Wrong. An emitter in a semiconductor emits majority current carriers (electrons or holes) into the junction between it and the base..
In the common emitter configuration, gain is hFe or collector resistance divided by emitter resistance, whichever is less. Placing a capacitor across the emitter resistor effectively makes the emitter resistor less, for higher frequencies, so the gain is higher for higher frequencies. This creates a high pass filter, or a low cut filter, depending on what you want to call it.
for stability
Because of the geometry of the common collector configuration, changes in base voltage appear at the emitter. Said another way, what happens at the base pretty much happens at the emitter, and the emitter can be said to "mirror" or "follow" the base. The emitter is a follower of the base, and the name emitter follower appeared and was used.

Re-model is made of only resistor. It gives real time operation i.e you can calculate all the values.

Just did it. The resistor is behind the passenger strut in the fire wall. Remove the wire from the old resistor, pull out the old resistor (held in by clips in the device. Install the new unit and re-attache wire. The space is tight and should not take you more than 30 minutes.
