Question No. 1 [18]


(a) Draw and label the gain vs frequency plot of a capacitor coupled amplifier circuit. Show
the three frequency bands (low-frequency, high-frequency and the mid-band) in your
plot. Explain why the gain, while remains constant in the midband, falls off at both ends
of the plot. [6]
(b) Draw the low-frequency small signal equivalent circuit for the following common emitter
(CE) amplifier. [4]
(c) What limits the frequency response of the amplifier at low frequency? Briefly explain
how the amplifier gain decreases at low frequency due to the coupling capacitor CC1. [4]
(d) Suggest and draw the circuit configuration for wide band amplifier. [4]
