Limiting action happens in series when a diode is________ and in parallel when a diode is________. - Reverse biased, forward biased. What is the purpose of a diode limiting circuit? - To limit amplitude of the input. What do clampers do? - Add DC to AC signal. A transistor in a Common Emitter transfers an internal resistance from a low resistance in emitter base to? - High resistance in collector base. Ie (Emitter current) = ? - Ib (base current) + Ic (collector current) When does cutoff occur in a Common Emitter? - When Emitter PN junction is reversed. A Common Emitter has a gain of how much? - 10 How does a Common Emitter affect the phase of an input signal? - It inverts the input 180° (flip) A Common Collector has a gain of how much? - 1 (no phase inversion) A Common Base has a gain of how much? - 10 (no phase inversion) How do transistor amplifiers operate? - By an AC input signal changing base bias. The component that develops bias for a transistor part is directly connected to the_________. - Corresponding transistor part. In a Common Emitter, if base voltage (base bias) increases, emitter current does what? - Increases. A small input controls a__________. - Large output What is the most common type of Multi-stage Amplifier? - RC (Resistive-capacitive) What is the purpose of Cascade amplifiers? - To increase Av (Voltage Gain) How is AvT (Total voltage gain) calculated in a Cascade Amplifier? - The product of individual stage gains (Q1xQ2xQ3x...=AvT) What is the typical gain for a three stage cascade amplifier (assumed value)? - 1,000 What is Cascading? - The connecting of multiple amplifiers in series. What is step 1 of the Multi-Stage Amplifier Troubleshooting process? - Check output, compare measured Av to Calculated Av. What is step 2 of the Multi-Stage Amplifier Troubleshooting process? - Check individual stage gains.
