What is the primary characteristic of the common base amplifier?
Think about how it interacts with the source.
What is the typical current gain of a common base amplifier?
Consider how input and output currents relate.
What is the expected current gain of a common base amplifier?
Think about the relationship between input and output current.
True or False: The common base amplifier has a high input impedance.
Remember the characteristics of a common base amplifier.
Given a common base amplifier with an input current of 10 µA, calculate the collector current if the beta (β) is 150.
Use the current gain relation in your calculation.
Design a common base amplifier circuit using a transistor with a given β and a desired output swing limit. Explain your approach.
Focus on the bias voltage and how it influences output limits.
