How are amplifiers classified?
|
By function and frequency response.
|
|
What are the frequency response ranges of:
-audio amplifiers -rf amplifiers -video amplifiers |
-15Hz - 20kHz
-10kHz - 100,000MHz -10Hz - 6MHz |
|
How is the class of operation of an operation determined?
|
By the percent of time that current flows through the transistor in relation to the input signal
|
|
What class of operation has current flow for 100% of the input signal, is least efficient, and has the best fidelity?
|
Class A
|
|
What transistor configuration has low input and high output impedance?
|
Common-base
|
|
What type of feedback is provided when the feedback signal is in phase with the input signal?
|
Positive (regenerative) feeback, which increases the gain of an amplifier.
|
|
What classes can push-pull amplifiers be operated as?
|
A, AB, or B.
|
|
What are used in video amplifiers to overcome high-frequency limitations caused by capacitance of the circuit?
|
Peaking coils
|
|
How is low-frequency compensation accomplished in a video amplifier?
|
By use of a parallel RC circuit in series with the load resistor.
|
|
Neutralization in an RF amplifier provides feedback to overcome the effects of what?
|
The effects caused by the base-to-collector interelectrode capacitance.
