The three ‘important eristics of a transistor are: Input characteristic. it DC currents an Constant current transfer characteristic. mut Characteristic ; 1on base configuration, it is the curve plotted between the input current (Ip) 1s input voltage (Vee) for various constant values of ‘output voltage (Vcs).9 approximated plot for input characteristic is shown in figure 1.

(the output characteristic has three basic region of interest as indicated in figure 2 ihe active region, cutoff region and saturation region.) In active region the collector base junction is reverse biased while the base emitter junction if forward biased. This region is normally employed for linear (undistorted) amplifier. In cutoff region the collector base junction and base emitter junction of the transistor both are reverse biased. In this region transistor acts as an ‘OfT” switch. In saturation region the collector base junction and base emitter junction of the transistor both are forward biased.

Single amplifier circuits, such as a common emitter, common base and common F amplifiers are seldom found alone, as a single stage amplifier, in any system. Generally, {Ko oF more than two stages are connected in cascade combination. If the output of one is connected (coupled) to the input of another amplifier the stages are said to be d in “cascade”. The benefit of cascaded _arnplifiers is to develop an output voltage larger stage alone can develop. in fact ,the overall gain of the cascaded amplifiers(called -gain) is the product of each individual stage gain, or AVL Ay2 x Avin = gain of first X gain ofsecond X gain of any stage stage number of stage Signal Stage 1 | Stagé2, Staye 3 * | Stage 4 Av Ay2 ea | = AVAL he —— i A A ee ae a complete system AveAVIAVAXAVE Ain iese of this the gain of a single stage is not as important as the system gain. rs usually set individual stage gains relatively low to reduce sigaal Ortion. One of the very important requirements to cascade one stage of amplifier 5 another is the impedaice matching. When the output impedance of previous ag aches with the input impedance of its next e, maximum power is (ferred, one of the coupling methods to couple the wo stages is RC - pling.
