EFFECT OF RL AND RS

EFFECT OF RL AND RS
The gain obtained with a source resistance in place will always be
less than that obtained under loaded or unloaded conditions due to
the drop in applied voltage across the source resistance.
For the same configuration AvNL >AvL >Avs.
For a particular design, the larger the level of RL, the greater is
the level of ac gain.
For a particular amplifier, the smaller the internal resistance of the
signal source, the greater is the overall gain.
For any network, such as those shown in Fig. 5.54 that have
coupling capacitors, the source and load resistance do not affect
the dc biasing levels.

DETERMINING THE CURRENT GAIN

SUMMARY TABLES

For each transistor configuration, the current gain can be

determined directly from the voltage gain, the defined load, and
the input impedance.
