You are one of the best teachers that I have come across Sir. Your clarity and delivery is phenomenal on every level. As an Electrician, I have learnt a lot more about electronic components and their calculation. I am not contented being an Electrician but an Instrument Technician as well. Many thanks to you Sir. You have helped me alone this journey. Keep up the good work you are doing. May God continue to bless you and keep you safe always.
Though I was a computer engineer major in college, and am currently studying for a ham radio exam, circuits are still a mystery to me. This has helped get a glimpse into all the very high level ham radio circuit theory where we are just essentially memorizing a little theory and a lot of answers to questions that will be asked verbatim on the exam (50 questions from a pool of 600). I still marvel at the fact that people have discovered putting capacitors at C1 and C2 will filter out DC signal, and that Re controls the E voltage... (and all else about circuits). Thanks for this work. Much appreciated
Unfortunately, Re doesn't control the emitter voltage. That's simply around 0.65V below the base voltage, which is controlled by the base bias resistors.
Man, you are the best teacher in the world. Your Calculus and Physics videos saved my college life. I do not even go to lessons. Because you teach better than my prosfessors. Thank you very much sir.
I want to say "thank you" for this video. I've been trying to learn some of this stuff as a hobby, but I've gotten nowhere because most people posting content assume that anyone watching these vids must be in possession of a baseline knowledge of electronics that I don't have. I've found the search for said knowledge is curiously difficult. It's been frustrating. This video was knowledgeable and informative. So many 'aha!' moments.
you are a legend!!!! literally saved me from failing😭 your explanations are so clear and easy to understand💛 my professer just does not make sense at all and made everything sounds suPER complicated. THANK YOUUUUUU!!!
What are you talking about, this guy doesn't teach you anything, any real exam would expect you to solve for the output voltage and current, not just give it to you
@@marccowan3585 At the end of the day it’s free content. And if someone just watches videos, doesn’t think critically about things, and doesn’t try solving problems or building circuits on their own, then I think it’s more on them. Personally I find his videos very interesting and enlightening.
Thank you so much. I’ve been looking for a video explaining how class A/B/AB audio amplifiers work and every video just tells you you have a transistor, you have a cap, you have some resistors and that’s it. I’ve been looking for someone to explain to me what happens to the electricity exactly from the input to the output. What every component does to it and I finally found you. Thank you sir.
@@TraaaaaasshBooooaaaatttt it's just hard for people to understand what you're struggling with sometimes. Once you understand a subject in EE it's generally not so hard I think. But yeah I find that's a common sentiment among people, especially at university, they are trying to explain their understanding of something. Which is often way above my head hahaha
@@tajalemark8256no I am studying eee which includes electrical (80℅) and electronics (20%) I still identify as electrical engineering but extra knowledge.
Good video as far as it went, but it included nothing about the logical questions a student might well ask, such as 'why is that resistor divider there on the input, and what are the functions of the collector and emitter resistors'? Some mention could have been made about selecting resistors to place the transistor's response in the middle of its most linear gain curve, etc. A bit of dialog about the actual way the transistor in this circuit is modulating the output voltage, since the output signal does not pass through the transistor. Things like that......
Hi Youtuuba! Check out his other video on voltage divider biasing. Essentially, there are many ways to bias amplifier circuits and one of them is using a voltage divider. This helps with changes in Beta due to things like temperature effects. He does a great job explaining in that video, it is just for DC analysis and stability.
@@cheesepie4ever Awesome, I am glad to hear it! I did biomedical engineering, but with a concentration that was basically EE. Have you encountered microcontrollers yet?
@@cheesepie4ever I'm glad to hear it! I can't quite recall if this is the same microcontroller I used in college, but based on my college's site, I think it was the Texas Instruments TM4C123. What do you use?
Appreciate your gift sir, you lecture well. However, I have a question. If the circuit is designed in such a way that DC is blocked from both the input and the output, then why include it in the first place? In other words, why is the transistor circuit subjected to both AC and DC?
@@PunmasterSTP Correct. You use the DC in order to compensate for the bias so that small AC signals are able to get past the bias. If output is “O = beta * AC - B” you add a DC voltage to compensate for B so that the output is “O = beta * AC” and the output will be more accurate to a perfectly amplified AC signal.
Note: if common emitter amplifier doesn't have bypass capacitor: Av = vout/vin whereas if it has a bypass capacitor its formula is Av = Rc / re where re = Vt/Ie . The common constant threshold voltage value used for Vt = 25mV at 300kelvin
Awesome video. Thank you! How can we calculate resistors, and maybe the caps, based on input and output V / I and transistor specs? I am thinking to do one for my headphones, to amplify from phone.
I'm confused why there are capacitors and AC input in this circuit. Do we have to have them for us to make a Common Emitter Amplifier?? I learned about Capacitors and AC inputs but I want to dive a little bit deeper as to why they are used here because I don't understand it.
I think the capacitors are there because we want to block out DC signals and just amplify AC (or changing) signals. Also, the transistor still needs to be (DC) biased appropriately, which also requires the use of the capacitors.
It does change somewhat with temperature, but changes most with collector current. For any given transistor type, there will be a collector current where it is a maximum. Below and above that current, it can drop, sometimes by a factor of as much as 3. The best way to get familiar with this is to search for transistor datasheets for different transistor types and look at the figures provided for current gain. Perhaps look at 2N2222, 2N3904, BC547C and 2N3055 to get an idea of the range of beta you may encounter.
when you draw the symbol of transistors, the two terminals of collector and emitter shouldn't intersect at the base terminal. There should be some space in between them. Otherwise it would mean there are only 2 regions.
Definitely there is a small gap but unfortunately he could have increased the gap...It is just draft and it is a good draft ...love it ...The fact it is not connected.. Well done..
All depends to individual parametres of transistors types. But how to solve the value resistance of dimmers? It should to add that collector voltage is equall to supply voltage, circa about the half Vcc
In voltage divider bias. with npn transistor. what will happen to the value of voltage gain when there is collector resistor? Can anyone care to teach me?
I thought it was inherent. I think he has mentioned several times that beta values range from around 100 to 200 (IIRC) for a bipolar junction transistor (BJT).
The beta of a transistor is determined by the way the transistor is manufactured and is completely inherent in the transistor type. A modern small-signal transistor might have a beta as high as 800, while an older transistor. or a power transistor might have a beta as low as 20. It also will vary somewhat with the collector current that is being used, so you should check on the datasheet for the transistor you are using for its possible range. For example, if you search for "2N2222 datasheet", you'll find a section labelled "DC Current Gain", you'll see that its minimum guaranteed beta is 35 at Ic=0.1mA; 100 at Ic=150mA; and 40 at Ic=500mA. You'd normally be using it as an amplifier with a collector current of a few mA and would probably design for a worst-case beta of 50.
You are quite right to query this. When you see an ac voltage stated as "1mV", you have to guess what is meant, because it can be ambiguous. It almost certainly should mean an _amplitude_ of 1mV (i.e. a sine wave varying from +1mV to -1mV), but it might be a voltage of 1mV root-mean-square (rms), which varies from +1.41mV to -1.41mV. The writer might even have intended it to mean 1mV peak-to-peak (p-p or pk-pk), which varies from +0.5mV to -0.5mV. My advice is to assume the first if you have to make a guess, and to always make sure you add "rms" or "pk-pk" if you are working with voltages measured in that way.
The assignment of V input as 10 mV is fine. But the arbitrary assignment of one milliamp input is confusing. How does one determine the value in a real world application?
