Transistors Part 2
In Transistors Part 2 we will discuss:
Transistor configurations
Transistor voltage feedback
Transistor current feedback
Push-Pull & Darlington circuits
Transistors Part 2
Transistors as an amplifier can be classified by:
Circuit Configuration
Signal Levels
Class of Operation
The Type of Transistor Used
This presentation will discuss the circuit
configuration.
Transistors Part 2
Configurations are:
CE-Common Emitter
CC-Common Collector (Emitter Follower)
CB-Common Base
The most commonly used configuration the
transistor is in when used as an amplifier is
the common emitter.
Transistors Part 2
Transistors Part 2
CE-Common Emitter has the input signal
applied between the base terminal and
ground, and the output terminal is taken
between the collector terminal and ground.
CC-Common Collector has the input signal
applied to the base terminal, and the output is
taken from the emitter terminal leaving the
collector common to the base and emitter.

Basic features of CC Amplifiers
- The input circuit can have very high
impedance.
- The output impedance is relatively low.
- The voltage gain is approximately equal to 1.
- Provides good current gain, but less voltage
gain than that of the CE amplifier.
- No phase reversal between the input and
output voltage.
Transistors Part 2
The CB-Common Base Amplifier has the input
signal applied to the emitter and the output
signal coming from the collector. This leaves
the base common to both the emitter and
collector.
The base-emitter junction is forward biased
while the base-collector junction is reverse
biased.
Transistors Part 2
Basic features of CB Amplifiers
- The input has very low impedance
between 1- and 50-.
- The output has medium impedance
about 1-k.
- Provides good voltage and power gain.
- No phase reversal between the input and
output voltage.
Transistors Part 2
Feedback-Stabilizes the DC bias of the
transistor for better amplification of signals.
- Current Feedback is the use of a resistor in series
with the emitter.
- Voltage Feedback is used with two resistors
between the collector and base and a single
voltage source, VCC, or with the same circuitry but
adding an additional resistor and reversed biased
VBB between the base and ground.

Current Feedback circuit:
Transistors Part 2
Transistors Part 2
With AC signals we can use feedback to
control the oscillations of the amplifier. When
feeding energy from the output to the input
may be either in phase or out of phase with
the input signal.
In-Phase (Positive) Feedback increases the
gain of the amplifier, and may, if sufficient,
lapse the amplifier into oscillations.
Out-of-Phase (Negative, or inverse) Feedback
reduces gain and prevents oscillations.
