Two stage transformer coupled amplifier.
Advantages: • Transformer coupling is mostly employed for impedance matching • It is used as final stage. It is used to transfer power to the low impedance lad such as loudspeaker. • For amplification of radio frequency (RF) signal. • In power amplifiers.
single stage CE amplifier
Operation of Single stage CE amplifier • The circuit diagram of a voltage amplifier usingle transistor in CE configuration is shown in figure. It is also known as a small-signal single-stage CE amplifier or RC coupled CE amplifier. It is also known as a voltage amplifier. • The potential divider biasing is provided by resistors R 1, R 2 and RE. • It provides good stabilization of the operating point. The capacitors CC 1 and CC 2 are called the coupling capacitors used to block the AC voltage signals at the input and the output sides. • The capacitor CE works as a bypass capacitor. It bypasses all the AC currents from the emitter to the ground avoids the negative current feedback. It increases the output AC voltage. • The resistance RL represents the resistance of whatever is connected at the output. It may be load resistance or input resistance of the next stage
Types of Coupling in Multistage • In multistage amplifiers, the output signal of preceding stage is to be connected to the input of next stage. • Coupling techniques: 1. R-C coupling 2. Transformer Coupling 3. Direct Coupling
Two stage RC coupled amplifier
Advantages of RC coupled Amplifier 1. Wide frequency response 2. It is most convenient coupling 3. It is inexpensive way of coupling distortion in output is low 4. It is high fidelity amplifier 5. No core distortion
Application 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. In Public Address amplifier system Tape Recorder TV, VCR and CD player Stereo amplifiers RC coupled amplifiers are basically voltage amplifiers
Transformer Coupled Amplifier
Advantages 1. Impedance matching between the stages is possible 2. Higher voltage gain than RC coupled amplifiers 3. DC biasing of individual stages will remain unchanged even after cascading. 1. 2. 3. 4. Disadvantages Coupling transformer is expensive and bulky Frequency response is not perfectly flat There is possibility of core saturation Low frequency due to losses in transformer
Applications 1. For Impedance matching 2. For amplification of radio frequency (RF) signal 3. In power amplifiers 4. For transferring power to low impedance load and such as a loude speaker
Direct coupled amplifier
1. 2. 3. 4. Advantages Due to absence of coupling capacitor, the gain does not reduce on the lower frequency side Wide frequency response This amplifier can amplify even the DC signal Reduced cost and complexity due to absence of coupling capacitor Disadvantages DC biasing conditions of the individual stages do not remain same after cascading Poor frequency response at higher frequencies Output waveform has DC shift Poor temperature stability
Application 1. In operation Amplifiers (OP-AMP) 2. In analog computation 3. In linear Power supplies For more detail contact us
