Output Impedance (Z0) The output impedance is determined at the output terminals looking back into the System with the applied signal set to zero. The output impedance of a BJT amplifier is resistive in nature and, depending on the configuration and placement of the resistive elements, Z0 can vary from a few ohms to a level that can exceed 2 M.

Amplifier Gain • Gain • A multiplier that exists between the input and output of a circuit. • For example, if the gain of an amplifier is 100, then the output signal is 100 times as great as the input signal under normal operating conditions. • Types of Gain: • Voltage gain, AV • Current gain, Ai • Power gain, Ap
Voltage Gain The small signal ac voltage gain is defined as For the system of the above Fig., a load has not been connected to the output terminal, the gain is therefore referred to as no load voltage gain (AvNL).
