Common emitter amplifier

Draw the circuit diagram of a common emitter amplifier using n-p-n transistor. What is the phase difference between the input signal and output voltage? State two reasons why a common emitter amplifier is preferred to a common base amplifier.

With the help of a labelled circuit diagram, explain how an n-p-n transistor can be used as an amplifier in common-emitter configuration. Explain how the input and output voltages are out of phase by 1800 for a common-emitter transistor amplifier.

Would you prefer to use a transistor as a common base or a common emitter amplifier?

The current amplification of the common base NPN transistor is 0.96 . What is the current gain if it is used as common emitter amplifier?

An NPN transistor is used in common emitter configuration as an amplifier with 1 k Omega load resistance. Signal voltage of 10 mV is applied across the base-emitter. This produces a 3 mA change in the collector current and 15 mu A change in the base current of the amplifier. The input resistance and voltage gain are:

A transistor is used in common emitter mode as an amplifier. Then (1) the base-emitter junction is forward biased (2) the base emitter junction is reverse biased (3) the input signal is connected in series with the voltage applied to the base-emitter junction. (4) the input signal is connected in series with the voltage applied to the base collector junction.
