which of the amplifier is used for Impedance Matching
Answers
Answer:
The emitter follower configuration is mostly used as a voltage buffer. These configurations are widely used in impedance matching applications because of their high input impedance. Common collector amplifiers have the following circuit configurations
Common Collector.
- Common collector configuration, also known as the emitter follower and provides high input of impedance & low output impedance. So they are used for impedance matching.
- In the common collector configuration, the collector terminal is the common to both of the input & output terminal's. The current gain in common collector configuration is the ratio of emitter current to base current.
- Since the emitter current is the high as compared to base current, we get current amplification.
- It will provides the voltage gain of less than unity.
Differences between different transistor configuration is :
Parameter Common-Base Common-Emitter Common-Collector
Input Current IE IB IB
Output Current IC IC IE
Voltage Gain Medium Medium Less Than 1
Thus the answer is Common collector.
Common collector configuration is used for the impedance matching.
