    1. The document describes setting up a single stage common emitter amplifier circuit and measuring its frequency response. 2. Key components include a BJT transistor, resistors, capacitors, DC and AC sources, and an oscilloscope. 3. When a weak AC signal is applied to the base, it is amplified and appears in the collector circuit due to the transistor's gain. The experiment involves measuring the operating point, gain at different frequencies, and determining the bandwidth and clipping point.

    Theory:

    When in an amplifier circuitt only one transistor is used for amplifyying a weak
    signal, the circuit is knowwn as single stage amplifier. However, er, a practical
    amplifier consists of a numbber of single stage amplifiers and hence
    ce a complex
    circuit. Therefore, such a complex
    c circuit can be conveniently split
    s into several
    single stages and can be effeectively analysed

    The above fig. shows a singlle stage transistor amplifier. When a weak w a.c. signal is
    applied to the base of the traansistor, a small base current starts flowi
    wing in the input
    circuit. Due to transistor action,
    a a much larger (β times the baase current) a.c.
    current flows through the thee load Rc in the output circuit. Since thhe value of load
    resistance Rc is very high, a large voltage will drop across it. Thuss, a weak signal
    applied in the base circuit apppears in amplified form in the collectoor circuit. In this
    way the transistor acts as an amplifier.

    Circuit analyses (to be com

    Draw the DC and AC eqquivalent circuit for Fig 1.1. Work outt the equation for
    the load line and the operarating point. Draw the load line and mark
    ark the operating
    point on it. Analyse thee ac circuit and calculate the expression for voltage gain.

    Procedure

    A. To record the operatting points of the transistor and con


    nfirm that it lies
    on the load line.

    Assemble the circuit as shohown in Fig 2. and record the base curr
    rrent IB, collector
    current Ic and collector too emitter voltage VCE or VC and base tot emitter
    voltage VBE. Verify that operating point lies around the center of
    o the load line.
    Operating point lies aroun
    und the center of the load line.
    B. To measure the gain of the amplifier as a function of frequency

    1. Assemble the circuit of Fig 1.1

    2. Set the function generator for sinusoidal out put. With the help of a Tee
    connector and BNC cable display the function generator output (input to the
    amplifier circuit) on one of the channel of the scope. Set the function generator
    for ~ 1kHz and 20mV peak to peak signal

    3. Display the out of the amplifier on second channel of scope.

    4. Make sure that both the input and output sine waves are not clipped or
    distorted in any way. If it is so then reduce the input voltage from the function
    fun
    generator. until nice clean looking sine waves are displayed at both input and
    output terminals. Also note the polarity of output sine wave relative to the
    applied input signal.

    5. Record the output signal as a function of frequency maintaining the input


    fixed at 20mV.

    6. Trace the input and output signals for atleast two frequencies (the scale
    should be well labeled)
    7. Calculate the gain of this amplifier by taking the ratio of the output and the
    input amplitude.

    8. Plot the gain as a function of frequency and determine the band width of the
    amplifier. Mark the cut off frequencies on the graph.

    9. Slowly increase the amplitude of the input sine wave until the output
    sinusoidal wave begins to clip.
    Note the voltage at which clipping is observed for the positive as well negative
    polarity. Trace the distorted signals for both the polarity.
    The frequency response curve will be
