CHAPTER 8
Troubleshooting Discrete Circuits (Simple Transistor Amplifiers)
For this chapter we will be introducing transistor amplifiers that are “derived” from the LED circuits from Chapter 7. We shall be showing that these amplifiers have limitations such as amplitude gain (ratio of output signal to input signal amplitudes), waveform distortion (e.g., a sine wave input signal with a distorted waveform at the output), output swing, and output current. In general, an amplifier is a circuit that provides a larger voltage signal or larger current signal at the output when compared to the input signal. All amplifier circuits require some type of ...
