Lab # 12 Common Collector Amplifier(Open-ended)

Objectives
This is an open-ended lab where students will use their previous knowledge,
which they
learned in theory/ lab, to design and implement the small-signal common collector
amplifier
and investigate what influences its voltage gain

Introduction
The common collector amplifier, often referred to as emitter-follower, is
characterized by application of the amplifier input signal to the base lead while its
output is taken from the emitter. The output signal is never larger than the input
but is always in-phase with the input. Consequently, the output follows the input.
The main advantage is that the input impedance of the common-collector
amplifier is generally much higher than for other bipolar transistor circuits.

Equipment and Materials


Think of all the required lab equipment for performing the given labtask.

In-Lab
• Design an emitter follower circuit with the configuration, choosing appropriate
value of
biasing voltages from transistor data sheets available in the lab.
• Implement your designed circuit on hardware.
• Find out the operating point of emitter follower circuit as well gain of an
amplifier.
• Analyze the results of both software simulation and hardware implementation.
Furthermore, explain the possible source of error and questionable results.

Post Lab
Design a common collector configuration for the following requirements
• Gain should be less then unity
• Output current should be at least 10x of base current.
CONCLUSION:-
• The voltage gain of a common emitter amplifier is medium.
• The power gain is high in the common emitter amplifier.
• There is a phase relationship of 180 degrees in input and output.
• In the common emitter amplifier, the
