Two of the most often used amplifier building blocks in audio amplifier design are the common emitter amplifier with emitter degeneration and the emitter follower using the same circuit biasing. The ...

Originally, the venerable three-terminal linear regulator featured a bipolar junction transistor emitter-follower output that exhibited very low output impedance. Many of today's applications demand ...

Immediately, I learned that the common base configuration gain was 6db lower than the common emitter. This blew my mind. Then I started checking input resistance and was shocked at how low it measured ...

This application note discusses the Avago Technologies AT-32063 dual low noise silicon bipolar transistor. The AT-32063 consists of two AT-320XX transistors mounted in a single package with all ...
