EXPERIMENT 04
Common Collector Amplifier

Objective:
The objectives of this experiment are
➢ to demonstrate the operation and characteristics of the common collector amplifier.
➢ to investigate what influences its voltage gain.

Equipment Used:
• DC power supply
• Digital Multimeter
• Dual-trace oscilloscope
• Function Generator
• Circuit breadboard
• Transistor: Q2N3904
• Resistors: 68 Ω, 100 Ω, two 1 k Ω, 22 k Ω, 27 k Ω
• Capacitors: 2.2 µF, 100 µF

Introduction:
Amplifiers
Amplification is the process of increasing the strength of signal. An Amplifier is a device
that provides amplification (the increase in current, voltage or power of signal) without
appreciably altering the original signal.

Common Collector Configuration


The common collector amplifier, often referred to as emitter-follower, is characterized by
application of the amplifier input signal to the base lead while its output is taken from the
emitter. The output signal is never larger than the input but is always in-phase with the input.
Consequently, the output follows the input. The main advantage is that the input impedance
of the common-collector amplifier is generally much higher than for other bipolar transistor
circuits.

In this arrangement, the input signal is applied between base and collector and the output is
taken from the emitter and collector. In this arrangement input current is base current and
output current is emitter current.
Procedure:
1. Wire the circuit as shown in circuit diagram, omitting the signal generator and the power
supply.
2. After you have checked all the connections, apply the 10- V supply voltage to the
breadboard. With a DMM, individually measure the transistor dc base and emitter voltages
with respect to the ground, recording your results in table.
3. Based on the actual resistor values determine the expected values of these voltages and
compare them with the measured values.

4. Connect channel 1 of your oscilloscope at point I and channel 2 to point O .


Then connect the signal generator as shown in fig and adjust the sine wave output level of
the generator at 0.2 V peak-to-peak at a frequency of 5 kHz. You should observe that that the
output signal level is very nearly the same as the input signal level . In addition,
there is no phase shift. These points are the two major characteristics of a common-collector
amplifier.
5. Using the oscilloscope measure the ac peak-to-peak voltage across the 1-kΩ load resistor.
Calculate the voltage gain from base to emitter. Record this result.
6. Now measure the actual voltage gain by dividing the peak-to-peak output voltage by the peak-
to-peak input voltage recording your results.

Conclusion:
The Common Collector Amplifier experiment, in conclusion, showed precise circuit design
with observed DC voltages that nearly matched predicted values. Oscilloscope and signal
generator integration observations supported the common-collector amplifier's property of
matching input and output signal levels without appreciable phase shift. The amplifier's
performance was further confirmed by the observed and computed voltage gains. This
experiment lays the foundation for next circuit evaluations by offering an informative
examination of common-collector amplifier behaviour.
