Amplification: Introduction A complex periodic signal can be represented as the sum of many individual sine waves. We consider only one component with amplitude VS =1 mV and frequency wS with 0 phase (signal is used as reference): Amplifier output is sinusoidal with same frequency but different amplitude VO and phase θ: Microelectronic Circuit Design McGraw-Hill Chap10 - 4
Amplification: Introduction (contd.) Amplifier output power is: Here, PO = 100 W and RL=8 W Output power also requires output current which is: Input current is given by phase is zero because circuit is purely resistive. Microelectronic Circuit Design McGraw-Hill Chap10 - 5

Amplifier Biasing for Linear Operation VI = dc value of vI, vi = time-varying component For linear amplification- vI must be biased in desired region of output characteristic by VI. If slope of output characteristic is positive, input and output are in phase (amplifier is non-inverting). If slope of output characteristic is negative, input and output signals are 1800 out of phase (amplifier is inverting). Microelectronic Circuit Design McGraw-Hill Chap10 - 8
Amplifier Biasing for Linear Operation (contd.) Voltage gain depends on bias point. Eg: if amplifier is biased at VI = 0.5 V, voltage gain will be +40 for input signals satisfying If input exceeds this value, output is distorted due to change in amplifier slope. Microelectronic Circuit Design McGraw-Hill Chap10 - 9
Amplifier Biasing for Linear Operation (contd.) Output signals for 1 kHZ sinusoidal input signal of amplitude 50 mV biased at VI= 0.3 V and 0.5V: For VI =0.3V: Gain is 20, output varies about dc level of 4 V. For VI =0.5V: Gain is 40, output varies about dc level of 10 V. Microelectronic Circuit Design McGraw-Hill Chap10 - 10
Distortion in Amplifiers • Different gains for positive and negative values of input cause distortion in output. • Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is a measure of signal distortion that compares undesired harmonic content of a signal to the desired component.
