  4. Gain can be expressed in decibels (dB). The dB is a logarithmic unit. Common logarithms are exponents of the number 10. Thelog of 100is 2 102 = 100 103 = 1000 10-2 = 0.01 100= 1 103.6 = 3981 Thelog of 1000is 3 Thelog of 0.01is -2 Thelog of 1is 0 Thelog of 3981is 3.6

  5. POUT 50 W PIN 1 W VOUT dB = 20 x log VIN The dB unit is based on a power ratio. 17 1.70 50 dB = 10 x log The dB unit can be adapted to a voltage ratio. This equation assumes VOUT and VIN are measured across equal impedances.

  6. +30 dB -6 dB -8 dB +20 dB +10 dB Total system gain = +46 dB dB units are convenient for evaluating systems. +10 dB -6 dB +30 dB -8 dB +20 dB

  7. Acoustical sound levels are often measured using dBA units. This instrument also has a dBC scale, which has a different frequency response curve. Exposure to loud sounds is a concern for employers and employees, and citizens in general.

  9. The emitter terminal is grounded and common to the input and output signal circuits. Next, a load resistor Then a base bias resistor A coupling capacitor is often required Add a power supply Start with an NPN bipolar junction transistor Connect a signal source RB RL VCC C B CC E A small-signal amplifier can also be called a voltage amplifier. Common-emitter amplifiers are one type.

  10. The output is phase inverted. RB RL VCC C B CC E

  11. When the input signal goes positive: The base current increases. The collector current increases b times. So, RL drops more voltage and VCE must decrease. RL C B The collector terminal is now less positive. RB VCC CC E

  12. When the input signal goes negative: The base current decreases. The collector current decreases b times. So, RL drops less voltage and VCE must increase. RL C B The collector terminal is now more positive. RB VCC CC E

  13. The maximum value of VCE for this circuit is 14 V. The maximum value of IC is 14 mA. IC(MAX) = 14 V These are the limits for this circuit. 14 V 1 kW 350 kW 1 kW C B CC E

  21. 14 V = 40 mA (IB is not affected) IB = 350 kW IC = b x IB = 350 x 40 mA = 14 mA (IC is higher) VRL = IC x RL = 14 mA x 1 kW = 14 V (VRL is higher) VCE = VCC - VRL = 14 V - 14 V = 0 V (VCE is lower) This is not a good Q point for linear amplification. 350 kW 1 kW 14 V C B CC b = 350 E b is higher

  22. 100 mA 80 mA 60 mA 40 mA 20 mA 0 mA The higher b causes saturation. 14 12 10 IC in mA 8 6 4 2 6 16 2 4 10 12 0 14 18 8 VCE in Volts The output is non-linear.
