Common Emitter Amplifier With Current Series Feedback.

For Silicon transistor, R2 can be eliminated.

R1=470k. RC=4.7K. RE=1K. CC=10F. CE=100F. hie=2K. hfe=40.

Ri=hie=2K, R0=RC=10K. Since the gain is very high, RC is selected

as 4.7K. (Minimum function generator voltage is 30mV, output is
going to saturation)

5.

Adjust the Function Generator Frequency 1KHz.

Set the minimum amplitude between 1KHz (any mid frequency)
See the undistorted output and measure the amplitude VPP
Calculate VPP * 0.707 = K some value we get.
Increase FG frequency till you get K value, which is f2 upper
cutoff frequency.
6. Decrease FG frequency till you get K value which is f1 lower
cutoff frequency.
7. f2 f1 is the band width.
8. Take 6 readings each near f1 & f2 to have a fine frequency responce
curve.
