Derive the equations for voltage gain, current gain, input impedance and output impedance for a BJT using approximate h-parameter model for CE configuration. Discuss briefly the choice of transistor configuration in a cascade amplifier. A CE, RC coupled amplifier uses transistors with the following h-parameters: hfe = 50, hie = 1200 , hoe = 30 10-6 mhos, hre = 2.5 10-4. The value of gm at the operating point is 50 mmhos. The biasing resistor R1 between VCC and base is 100 K and R2 between base and ground is 10 K. The load resistor RC = 5 K. Let C = 160 PF be the total shunt capacitance in the input circuit and the coupling capacitor CC = 6 F. Calculate for one stage of the amplifier (i) mid-band current gain (ii) mid-band voltage gain (iii) lower and higher 3 dB frequencies and (iv) gain-bandwidth product. Explain the effect of emitter bypass capacitor on low frequency response of BJT amplifiers. For the CE amplifier shown in figure, calculate the mid frequency voltage gain and lower 3 dB point. The transistor has h-parameters of hfe = 400 and hie = 10 K. The circuit details are Rs = 600 , R L = 5 K, RE = 1 K, VCC =12 V, R1 = 15 K, R2 = 2.2 K and CE = 50 F. VCC R1 RL

Draw the small signal equivalent circuit of FET amplifier in CS connection and derive the equations for voltage gain, input impedance and output impedance. Describe with necessary derivations, the effect of negative feedback on the bandwidth and distortion in an amplifier. The open loop voltage gain of an amplifier is 50. Its input impedance is 1 K. What will be the input impedance where a negative feedback of 10% is applied to the amplifier? Derive the expression for the frequency of oscillation and the minimum gain required for sustained oscillations of the RC phase shift oscillator. State and briefly explain Barkhausen criterion for oscillation. In a class A amplifier VCE max = 25 V, VCE min = 5 V. Find the overall efficiency for: (i) Series fed load. (ii) Transformer coupled load. Draw the circuit diagram of a push-pull amplifier and explain its working. Draw the equivalent circuit of capacitance coupled single tuned amplifier and derive the equation for voltage gain. Discuss elaborately on the stability of tuned amplifiers.
