The Common Emitter Amplifier [Transistor TS 4]

Video Name:
The Common Emitter Amplifier [Transistor TS 4]

Video Description:
Transistor tutorial series episode 4. In this episode we introduce the common emitter transistor amplifier circuit, go over its biasing and small signal model
then conclude with a step-by-step design and demonstration of the common emitter amplifier in the lab

Concepts discussed:
common emitter transistor amplifier overview
simple biasing circuit for common emitter amplifier
low frequency small signal analysis
step-by-step design of a common emitter amplifier of a desired gain
demonstration of that circuit in the lab
changing the gain of that circuit and demonstrating the differences
explore what happens when the signals become too large
