a) RE || (re‘ – (R1 || R2) / (β + 1))
b) RE || (re‘ – (R1 || R2) / (β – 1))
c) RE || (re‘ + (R1 || R2) / (β + 1))
d) RE || (re‘ + (R1 || R2) / (β – 1))
View Answer
Explanation: The output impedance of a simplified common collector (CC) amplifier can be expressed in terms circuit resistor values. The base impedance is RE || (re‘ + (R1 || R2) / (β + 1)) . Where β is the transistor amplifiers current gain, Re is the equivalent emitter resistance and re‘ is the alternating current resistance of the emitter-base diode.

a) 0.68
b) 0.59
c) 0.48
d) 0.086
View Answer
Explanation: The voltage gain AV of a simplified common collector amplifier configuration can be calculated using AV = RE / (RE + re‘) . Given, RE = 25kΩ and re‘ = 12kΩ:
AV = RE / (RE + re‘) = 25 / 25 + 12 = 25 / 37 = 0.675 ≈ 0.68
9. What is the approximate value of the voltage gain of a simplified CC amplifier configuration?
a) 1
b) β
c) ∞
d) 0
View Answer
Explanation: The voltage gain of a simplified CC amplifier configuration is approximately equal to unity (AV ≈ 1) and its current gain, Ai is approximately equal to β(Ai ≈ β) which depends on the value of each individual transistors.
10. There is no collector resistance in a simplified CC amplifier configuration.
a) True
b) False
View Answer
Explanation: The simplified common collector (CC) amplifier configuration does not have a collector resistance RC. The collector terminal of the bipolar junction transistor is common to both the input and output circuit terminals.
