a.

To determine

To Show: When two identical amplifier stages are connected in cascade, then the 3-dB frequency of the overall amplifier will be equal to f3dB=21×f1 .

b.

To determine

The value of the 3-dB frequency.

c.

To determine

The value of the 3-dB frequency when the amplifier is redesigned with cascading two identical amplifiers.Also, the compare the value of the 3-dB frequency with the value obtained in part (b) needs to be done.

A common emiiter amplifier (Fixed Bias) is currently under test to determine its bandwidth in the unloaded case. In the bandpass region ,the amplifier's voltage gain, input impedance, and output impedance are measured to be 32dB, of 100k Ohms, and 3k Ohms, respectively. The designer used input and output coupling capcitors with values of 1uF and 100uF, respectively. The amplifier circuit's PCB layout was properly designed, thus minimizing the wiring capacitances. The device capcitances are measured as follows: CBE = 1pF, CBC = 8pF, and CCE = 1pF. Assuming a voltage source resistance of 50 Ohms, determine the higher cutoff frequency due to the input circuit

I need help solving this: Based on the amplifier given in Fig. 2, draw the small signal equivalent and derive the two time constants associated with capacitances C1 and C2. Assume early voltage is infinity. Finally, indicate which formula out of the two should be used for the lower 3 dB frequency calculation? Formulate the maximum gain. Draw a rough frequency response based on your formulation
