Hi there
My partner and I are currently having trouble with a common emitter amplifier. Just for testing purpose in the labs, to see if our calculations were right. We set up Vcc = 6v, Ra = 1k, Rb = 100k, Re = 100, Rc = 470 and load is a 8ohm speaker. Our Vin was 5v (pk-pk). Two 10microF capacitors at input and output of BJT amp. Our calculation shows that we'll get a voltage gain of 16 however our output was even lower than 4v. We're not sure what is going on there?
Thanks
