TITLE: Effect of bypass capacitor on CE Amplifier parameters


AIM: To study effect of bypass capacitor on bandwidth and gain of single stage CE
amplifier.
OUTCOME: Students will be able to analyse the frequency response of BJT amplifier

PROCEDURE:
1. Implement the circuit as per the circuit diagram in workspace of Ltspice.
2. Take sinusoidal input signal of fixed amplitude and apply it to the amplifier circuit.
3. Vary the frequency of the source and measure the output voltage.
4. Find frequency response of amplifier circuits with reference to observation table I.
5. Plot frequency response and find lower cut-off frequency, upper cut-off frequency,
voltage gain.
6. Connect at least two different bypass capacitors and repeat above process.

Theoretical Calculations
Lower cut-off frequency, higher cut-off Frequency, mid band voltage gain

Conclusion: We learnt from this experiment that without bypass capacitor the gain is
very less. As the value of capacitance increases, the bandwidth increases.
