PROFESSOR Interpretation of Results In the first part of the laboratory experiment, the given series feedback amplifier circuit was connected and the positive variable supply was set to 10V and the potentiometer R3 was adjusted for a Q1 collector voltage of 5.5VDC. The operating DC voltages of Q1 were measured From the data gathered in first part of the laboratory experiment in table 7-1a DC voltages of series-feedback amplifier, the following DC voltages of the JFET amplifier were measured using the digital multimeter: the operating voltage supply voltage (V cc), the collector voltage (VC), the base voltage (VB) and the emitter voltage (VE). The AC voltages of the series-feedback amplifier namely the input voltage (VIN) and output voltage (VOUT) were also determined and were used to compute the voltage gain (A V) for both with series-feedback and without series-feedback amplifier condition. The Frequency response of the amplifier specifically the lower cut-off frequency (fL), the upper cut-off frequency (fU) and bandwidth were also determined for either with series-feedback or without series-feedback amplifier condition. The resulting output signal waveforms of the amplifier with series-feedback and without series- feedback were graphed and shown in graph 7-1. On part 2 of the experiment in table 7-2a, 7-2b and 7-2c, the same procedures as in part 1 were done except that instead of using a series feedback, the behavior of the amplifier was observed both with shunt feedback and without shunt feedback. The DC voltages, AC voltages and the output signal graphs were also obtained. Conclusion In this laboratory experiment titled as “Feedback amplifier”, the principles and ideas behind the feedback amplifiers with different conditions namely with series-feedback, without series-feedback, with shunt feedback and without shunt feedback were understood fully with the use of practical tests and simulations and be able to learn the connections of the different feedback amplifier circuit and determined their corresponding output voltages and voltage gains. And knew the locations where to measure the input and output signals in all of the circuit configurations either with or without series-feedback and either with or without shunt feedback condition of the amplifier. We are also be able to determine the relationship of the input and output signals of the feedback amplifier with or without series-feedback and with or without shunt feedback. The following information were also known: Feedback means a portion of output signal is returned to the input. The two basic categories of feedback depending on the relative phase angle of returning feedback signal. Positive or regenerative feedback works for oscillator circuits. However for amplifiers, negative or degenerative feedback is don’t to improve its overall electrical characteristics. Some of the characteristics of amplifiers altered by feedback are AC gain, frequency response, linearity and impedance. Negative feedback on amplifiers produces a more linear operation, lesser noise and a better stabilized gain. AC gain is greater without series feedback than that of without series feedback but the bandwidth is greater without series feedback than that of with series feedback. AC gain is greater without shunt feedback than that of without shunt feedback but the bandwidth is greater without shunt feedback than that of with shunt feedback. It is very essential to know the effects of employing series feedback and shunt feedback to amplifier circuits for future designs, prototypes and real life applications with a given parameter or condition.
