Design of 2 stage BJT CE amplifier(SEM 4)

Circuit diagram:

Selection of voltage gains

If ratio of output impedences is given thenAv1/Av2 = Rc1/Rc2

[If ratio of output impedences is not given then assume Rc1/Rc2 = 2]Overall voltage gain, Av = Av1 * Av2

[Substitute Av2 in terms of Av1 or vice versa & find Av1 & Av2]

[If you have to select a transistor, select BC 147B for its higher inputimpedence & hfe]

Part 2: Design of second stage

Step 1: Calculation of RL

RL = (Vo peak)/(Io peak)

[Not necessary if RL is not given or Vo peak, Io peak is not given]

Step 2: Selection of Rc2

mod(Av2) = (hfe * RL2')/hie

[RL' = (Rc2) parallel (RL) or RL' = Rc2 if RL is not given]


2/5

[if min voltage gain is specified, use hfe min. If some specific voltagegain is specified, use hfe

typ]

[Calculate RL' & Rc2]

Step 3: Selection of Vceq

Case 1:Vcc is given

Vceq 2 = 1.5 * (Vo peak + Vce saturation)

If Vo is not given thenVceq = Vcc/2

Vre2 = 10% to 20 % of Vcc

Vrc2 = Vcc - Vceq2 - Vre2

Icq2 = Vrc2/Rc2

Re2 = Vre2/Icq2

[Select lowerstandard value so that drop across Re is less which increases gain of the output]

Case 2: Vcc is not given

Vceq 2 = 1.5 * (Vo peak + Vce saturation)

Ic2 peak = Vo peak/ RL2

Assume Vre2 = 2 V

Vcc = Vceq + Icq(Rc2 + Re2)[Select on higher side]

Step 4: Selection of R3 & R4

If stability factor is not given ,assume S = 8

S = (hfe + 1)/(1 + (hfe * Re2)/(Rb2 + Re2))


3/5

Find Rb[Do not standardise]

Vr4 = Vbe + Vre

Vr3 = Vcc - Vr2

Assume Vbe = 0.6V [for Si, 0.3 for Ge if not specified]

R3/R4 = Vr3/Vr4 .............(A)

[Get R3 in terms of R4 & substitute in Rb2]

Rb2 = R3 parallel R4 = (R3 * R4)/(R3 + R4)

Find R4[Select lower standard value to make circuit indepent of beta]

Substitute in (A) to find R3

Select higher standard value so that circuit draws minimum current from supply

Part 2: Design of first stage

[Find value of Av2 using designed value of Rc2]

Then Av1 = Av/Av2

Step 1: Selection of Rc1

mod(Av1) = (hfe * RL1')/hie

[RL' = (Rc1) parallel (Rb2) parallel (hie)]

[if min voltage gain is specified, use hfe min. If some specific voltagegain is specified, use hfetyp]

[Calculate RL' & Rc1]

Let Vceq1 = Vceq2Vrc1 = Vrc2Vre1 = Vre2

Icq1 = Vrc1/Rc1

Re1 = Vre1/Icq1

Step 3: Selection of R1 & R2


4/5

s = (1 + hfe max)/(1 + ((hfe max * Re )/(Rb + Re))Find Rb[Do not standardise]

Vr2 = Vbe + Vre

Vr1 = Vcc - Vr2

Assume Vbe = 0.6V [for Si, 0.3 for Ge if not specified]

R1/R2 = Vr1/Vr2 .............(A)

[Get R1 in terms of R2 & substitute in Rb]

Rb = R1 parallel R2 = (R1 * R2)/(R1 + R2)

Find R2

[Select lower standard value to make circuit indepent of beta]

[Substitute in (A) to find R1]

Select higher standard value so that circuit draws minimum current from supply

Step 4: Selection of coupling capacitors

Select higher standard value for all capacitors

Selection of Ce1:

Xce1 = Re1/10Ce1 = 1/(2*pi * FL * Xce1) [FL = lower cutoff frequency. Assume FL = 20 Hz (For all

capacitors)if not specified]

Selection of Ce2:

Xce2 = Re2/10

Ce2 = 1/(2*pi * FL * Xce2) [FL = lower cutoff frequency.Assume FL = 20 Hz (For all

capacitors)if not specified]

Selection of Cb1:

[Rb = R1 parallel R2]

[If Rs[Source resistance] is not specified assume Rs = 0]

Xcb1 = ((Rb) parallel (hie))


5/5

Cb1 = 1/(2 * pi * FL * Xcb)

Selection of Cb2:

[Rb2 = R3 parallel R4]

Xcb2 = Rc1 + ((Rb) parallel (hie))

Cb2 = 1/(2 * pi * FL * Xcb)

Selection of Co:

[Rb2 = R3 parallel R4]

Xcc = Rc + RL [If RL[load resistance] is not specified thenassume amplifier is connected to asimilar next stage. Hence RL = (Rb1)parallel (hie)]

Cc = 1/(2 * pi * FL * Xcc)

[Draw the figure with designed values. Do all this in about 36 - 40 minutes (1.8minper mark)]
