Reason: The common Emitter mode has voltage and current gain better than the other two configurations(CB and CC).

i.e it has a current gain greater than that of CC mode and greater voltage gain than that of CB mode.

In a common emitter transistor the primary purpose of a resistor connected to the emitter is to?

The emitter resistor in a common emitter configuration provides negative feedback to the transistor, reducing both its voltage gain and distortion.


Why cb and cc configuration are not preferred as an electronic switch?

Common emitter is the preferred circuit because the collector voltage drops to a well defined low value when the transistor is 'on', therefore it absorbs only a small amount of power.


What are the three basic transistor connection configuration modes?

The three basic transistor connection configuration modes are common emitter, common base, and common collector. In the common emitter configuration, the emitter terminal is common to both the input and output circuits, providing high voltage gain. The common base configuration has the base terminal common to both circuits, offering high frequency response but low voltage gain. Finally, the common collector configuration, also known as an emitter follower, provides current gain and high input impedance while maintaining unity voltage gain.


What are the classification of amplifiers according to transistor configuration?

common emitter using fixed bias


Why more current amplification in common emitter?

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.

What do you mean by common emitter configuration and biasing pnp transistors?

A common emitter BJT transistor has the emitter ground. So u measure input voltage at base with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter and also u measure the output voltage at collector with respect to the ground, i.e; emitter. Hence, the emitter is common and thus the name.
