10 What are Small Signal Amplifiers? When variation of output (i c ) with input (i b )are not very large the amplifier is called: Small Signal Amplifier. Applications: Radio &TV Receivers Tap Recorders Stereos Measuring instruments 10

11 Single Voltage Stage divider Transistor biasing Amplifier circuit +V CC X CE <= 0.1R E C C :Coupling Capacitor Voltage gain A v =V o / V i R 1 R C c c c c R 0 v 0 v i R 2 R E c E 11

12 Small Signal Amplifier Analysis: why? The following parameters of amplifier are used to describe the performance of the circuit. 1. Input Impedance (Z i ) 2. Output Impedance (Z 0 ) 3. Current Gain (A i ) 4. Voltage Gain (A v ) and 5. Bandwidth The transistor circuits needs to be analyzed to determine the values of these parameters. 12

13 Small Signal Amplifier: Analysis 1. Graphical Method. 2. Equivalent Circuit Method. 13

14 Graphical Method for Amplifier Analysis Advantages: No approximate assumptions. More accurate results than other methods. Only method suitable for large signal amplifiers and power amplifiers. We need output characteristics supplied by manufacturer to see variations of I B, Ic and V C. 14

15 Graphical Method for Amplifier Analysis The method involves the determination of; 1. DC Load Line (DC Analysis) 2. AC Load Line (AC Analysis) 3. Current Gain 4. Voltage gain 5. Phase Relations 15

16 Graphical Method: DC Analysis (DC Load Line) Are DC and AC Load Lines same or different? + v CC + v CC R 1 R C C C R 1 R C C C `` + v i R 2 R E C E v 0 re R 2 R E Basic CE small signal amplifier Circuit DC behavior For all DC currents or voltages all Cs make open circuit. 16

17 DC load line: Graphical Method: DC Analysis + v CC KVL R 1 R C I C y = m x + c R 2 R E V CE I E I C A When V CE = 0, I C = V CC /(R C +R E ) A When I C = 0, V CC =V CE B re I B I C DC behavior DC load line V CE B V CE 17

18 Graphical Method: DC Analysis Determination of DC load line; Example: 18

19 I C 8.2 ma Graphical Method: DC Analysis DC Load line y = mx +c m = -1/ R dc = -1/(R C +R E ) Vcc = 9V and Vcc/(Rc+R E ) = 8.2 ma (9V, 0) and (0, 8.2 ma), I B =30 μa I B = 60 µa Q I B = 40 µa I B = 20 µa 9 V V CE 19

20 Graphical Method: DC Analysis Determination of DC load line; Example: y = mx +c m = -1/ R dc = -1/(R C +R E ) Vcc = 9V and Vcc/(Rc+R E ) = 8.2 ma (9V, 0) and (0, 8.2 ma), I B =30 μa 20

21 Graphical Method: DC Analysis DC Load line Variations in Q with DC bias (I B ) I C I B = 60 µa Q I B = 40 µa I B = 20 µa V CE But with AC signal, changes in Q are very fast. 21

22 Graphical Method: AC Analysis We need two Considerations: 1. The capacitive reactance is X c = 1/(2πfC) Ω. It indicates that the coupling & emitter by-pass capacitor can be approximated as short circuit at high enough frequency. 2. Since, we deal with only ac voltages we do need not to consider effect of dc voltages/currents in the circuit. With these two considerations the amplifier circuit can be modeled for equivalent circuit. 22

23 Graphical Method: AC Analysis R 1 +V CC R C c c 1. Effect of Cc s and C E 2. DC supply Shorted c c v i R 2 R E R 0 c E v 0 v i R 1 R R C R 0 v 0 2? Basic CE Circuit AC behavior Where is R E? 23

24 AC behavior: Graphical Method: AC Analysis R C R 0 v v R i 1 R 0 2 As shown, R C and Ro in parallel forms the ac load R ac. The load line corresponding to this R ac is ac load line Since R dc and R ac are different, DC and AC load lines are different. However both must passes through Q point for zero signal condition. 24

25 Graphical Method: AC Analysis Determine the AC load line of the circuit. 25

26 Graphical Method: AC load line; Example With AC signal R ac = Rc Ro= 320 Ω B and so 1/Rac = Slope of ac load line = 1/Rac Draw line AB with slope =OB/OA =1/Rac A If we set OA= 1V then slope = 1/R ac = OB/1V. So we get OB = (1V/R ac ) Ampere = 3.1 ma. Hence we get co-rdinates of point B. 26

27 Graphical Method: Calculation of Gain 27

28 Graphical Method: Calculation of Gain With AC signal of 5 mv, peak to peak variation are 5x 2 x 2 =14.14mV Voltage Gain A v = (V CE max V Cmin ) / (V i max V i min ) = ( ) V/ (14.14) mv = Current Gain = (I C max I Cmin ) / (I B max I bmin ) = ( ) / (40 20) =
