For example, if the supply is 9V, the collector operating point is 4.5V and the collector current is only 0.25ma then the collector resistor is 4.5V/0.25ma= 18k. the output impedance is 18k and will be affected if the load is less than about 100k ohms.
If the current in the transistor is 10 times higher at 2.5mA then it will be able to drive a load as low as 10k ohms.
With a 9V supply and a 100k ohms load then the collector resistor value should be 10k at most then the output level and gain will not be reduced much. The idle current should be 0.4mA for a symmetrical output swing.How do i calculate the load , in this example how to i find value 100k ohms depend on supplr power : 9v, orerating point 4.5v . collctor current 0.25ma ?
With a 9V supply and a 100k ohms load then the collector resistor value should be 10k at most then the output level and gain will not be reduced much. The idle current should be 0.4mA for a symmetrical output swing.
For an idle current of 0.25mA then the voltage drop across the collector resistor is 10k x 0.25mA= 2.5V which will result in a reduced non-symmetrical output swing.
If the collector resistor is 16k then the voltage across it is 16k x 0.25mA= 4V and if the voltage across the emitter resistor is 1V then the output will have the maximum symmetrical swing, the maximum output level will still be pretty high and the gain will not be reduced much.
