Power Amplifiers

 

INTRODUCTION

 

Discuss some of the basic differences between the operation of a class A, B and C amplifiers.

 

EQUIPMENT

 

• 1 power supply: 12V
• 1 transistor: 2N3904
• 2 resistors: 1kΩ, 50kΩ
• 3 capacitors: 0.1µF, 0.01µF, 560pF
• 1 inductor: 38.07µH
• Tektronix oscilloscope
• Waveform generator

 

PROCEDURE

 

Using Multisim construct the circuit shown below:

 

Diagram posted as attachment

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Calculate the resonant frequency f_r – show your work and record the answer in row 1 of the table.

 

1. Use the Waveform generator to produce an input: 2.5Vpk and frequency set to the resonant frequency.
2. Use the Tektronix oscilloscope to measuref_outand record it in the table
3. Take a screen shot of circuit showing the frequency measurement on the oscilloscope.
4. Repeat steps a) and c) for each input frequency in the table.

 

RESULTS

 

fin	fout
1	fr =
2	1500kHz
3	300kHz
4	546kHz
5	273kHz
6	873kHz

 

Discuss the results.
