transformer coupling
It is used to couple output of one stage to input of next stage
AC coupling is where a capacitor is used to block the DC componant of a signal. Used often in Medical devices when a DC componant could harm a patient Coupling refers to transferring electrons trough a media. It could magnetic such as coils proximity. A transformer and yes even a capacitor. And no it has no medical devices ONLY application.
A coupling capacitor is used to block the flow of direct current while allowing alternating or signal currents to pass, hence mainly used for joining two stages in radio and amplifier circuits.Also known as blocking capacitor or stopping capacitor. They are also used in substations within a "wave trap" where communication is done by a.c. power line and any d.c. signals need to be attenuated or blocked.
Because capacitor not allow to pass dc voltage,but capacitor allow ac voltage and signal.Purpose is to block dc voltage.That is coupling condenser.
reflected impedence is a tool to analyse resonant coupling..
NO. Transformer coupling gives the higher gain in case of amplifer.
transformer coupling ensures maximum power transfer is obtained even if the output impedance is not equal to the load impedance
no.transformer coupling gives higher gain
DC coupling on the input/output will always give higher gain because AC coupling involves inserting a capacitor, which adds impedance and augments the signal. AC coupling is sometimes necessary though, for such purposes as eliminating DC offset on the base of a transistor, or eliminating a DC offset in a single supply opamp circuit.
Yes, it's called a Transformer. Definitely the wrong answer. DC on a transformer is certainly going to blow it up. The answer is yes unless capacitor coupling is involved
Transformer coupling
an RC coupled amplifier is basically used for voltage amplification , where the circuit currents are quite low. higher currents & voltages would mean more dissipation in the load resistors , which is essentially very lossy . The coupling amplitude to the next stage is ideally the same as the previous stage signal excursion. However if a transformer is used for coupling , both large voltages & current can be handled without incurring the dissipation of a resistive load. Moreover a coupling gain of the transformer primary to secondary ratio is also a bonus. also because of the possiblity of correct impedance matching on the primary & secondary side maximum power coupling is obtained. hence transformer coupling is more efficient in such applications. in high frequency applications transformer coupling , along with tuned circuits as applicable is the choice circuit.
The term impedance coupling can be used in two ways. 1) Example, coupling a signal from the output of one stage of an amplifier, to the input of the next stage. For low power as under about 0.1 watt, RC coupling is cheap and adequate as little power is dissipated in the collector resistor of a bipolar amplifier. However at higher power levels impedance coupling is more efficient, but also more expensive. An inductor simply replaces the resistor used for RC coupling. Unlike a resistor the inductors impedance is frequency dependent. This varies the level of coupling voltage available over the amps bandwidth, and needs to be accounted for at the design stage. An advantage is that by the addition of a parallel capacitor, an LC circuit can be formed to produce the basis for a band pass amplifier. Further by providing a tapped inductor; coupling, tuning and impedance matching functions can be obtained. Transformer coupling is a form of impedance coupling and can provide galvanic isolation as well as matching. 2) Unbalanced circuits, that is those having a 'high' or 'signal' lines and a common ground,chassis or earth; have the disadvantage that undesired signal coupling can occur when the higher current signals produce small voltage drops along the common ground. To minimize these undesired voltage variations grounds on PCBs are given wide low resistance tracks. Also by not mixing analog and digital signal grounds, the adverse effects of coupling are reduced. Furthermore, at higher frequencies a narrow length of track also has inductance, and capacitance to nearby conductors. There components provide the possibility of additional undesired impedence coupling. Balanced circuits which do not have one line of any signal grounded overcome the disadvantages of the simpler unbalanced circuits.
Loading of Rc coupled amplifier occurs, if you doesnt use coupling capacitors...... If avoiding input coupling capacitor the amplifier will load the function generator.. For more details go to http://mycircuits9.blogspot.com

Basically the characteristics of a transformer depends on the impedance(resistance) and on the coupling of its primary and secondary coils. The impedance of a coil depends on the frequency, as the frequency increases you need less volume of iron core and less number of turns in the coil for a given impedance, then reducing the size of the transformer.
A: it could be both coupling meaning eliminate DC from the source or decoupling whereby unwanted signal is bypassed to ground
