A npn transistor is connected in common emitter configuration in a given amplifier. A load resistance of 800 Ω is connected in the collector circuit and the voltage drop across it is 0.8 V. If the current amplification factor is 0.96 and the input resistance of the circuit is 192Ω, the voltage gain and the power gain of the amplifier will respectively be :
-
- 4, 3.84
- 3.69, 3.84
- 4, 4
- 4, 3.69
Correct Option: A
Given: amplification factor α = 0.96
load resistance, RL = 800 Ω
input resistance, Ri = 192 Ω
So, β = | = | ⇒ β = 24 | ||
1 – α | 0.04 |
Voltage gain for common emitter configuration
Av = β . | = 24 × | = 100 | ||
Ri | 192 |
Power gain for common emitter configuration
Pv = βAv = 24 × 100 = 2400
Voltage gain for common base configuration
Av = α . | = 0.96 × | = 4 | ||
RP | 192 |
Power gain for common base configuration
Pv = Avα = 4 × 0.96 = 3.84
