Linear Diode Detector or Envelope Detector: Diode detection is called the envelope detection as it recovers the audio frequency signal envelope from the composite signal. Diode detector is also called…
Large Signal Tuned Amplifier - Operation and its Equivalent Circuit: Tuned amplifier circuits are for class A operation and their use is limited to applications in which RF signal has…
Transformer Coupled Transistor Amplifier - Working Principle: The main cause for low voltage and power gains of an R-C coupled amplifier is that the effective load (Rac) of each stage…
RC Coupled Transistor Amplifier - Operations, Derivation and Applications: A two-stage RC Coupled Transistor Amplifier using N-P-N transistors in CE configuration is shown in Fig. 16.12. The two transistors used are…
What is Frequency Response of an Amplifier? The voltage gain of an amplifier varies with signal frequency due to the effect of variations in circuit capacitive reactance with signal frequency…
Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS): With active load switching, the current drain with a low output is approximately equal to ID(sat). This may cause a problem with battery operated equipment.…
Depletion Type MOSFET - Construction, Operation and Characteristics: As we know already that when the gate is biased negative w.r.t. the source in an N-channel JFET, the depletion-region widths are…
Thermal Resistance - Definition, Circuit Diagram and Equation: With power transistors, a designer often uses a heat sink to get a high power rating for the transistor. As already mentioned,…
