Resistors, and Capacitors.
Theory:
The common emitter amplifier has a
resistor in the collector circuit. The current that passes
through this resistor is responsible for the potential
drop across the resistor which is obtained as the output
at the end of the resistor. The value of this resistor is
decided in, such a way that the Q-point of this output
voltage lies halfway along the transistor’s load line. So
the best position for the Q-point is at the center
position of the load line. The base of the transistor
used in a common emitter amplifier is biased only by
using toe resistors as a means of potential divider
network. This type of bias is only used in the design of
a bipolar transistor. It is extremely helpful in reducing
the course effects of ever-varying Beta. It is done so Waveform :
by maintaining the base bias at a steady voltage. This
type of bias is responsible for the stability throughout
the circuit.
The transistor bias voltage is given by:
