For maximum power transfer in an amplifier circuit, the load impedance should be
Correct Answer:
B. Complex conjugate of source impedance
EXPLANATION
Maximum power transfer theorem states that maximum power is delivered when load impedance is the complex conjugate of source impedance (ZL = ZS*).
The input impedance of a common base amplifier is
Correct Answer:
B. Very low (Ω range)
EXPLANATION
Common base configuration has very low input impedance (typically 20-100 Ω) because the input is at the emitter which is forward biased.
In a common emitter amplifier, the voltage gain is maximum when the load resistance is
Correct Answer:
C. Much larger than output impedance
EXPLANATION
Voltage gain AV = gm × RL. Maximum gain occurs when load resistance is much larger than the output impedance of the transistor, limited only by practical considerations.
