How to calculate the overall gain of a multi stage amplifier?

How to calculate the overall gain of a multi stage amplifier?

Where A V = Overall gain, A V1 = Voltage gain of 1 st stage, and A V2 = Voltage gain of 2 nd stage. If there are n number of stages, the product of voltage gains of those n stages will be the overall gain of that multistage amplifier circuit.

How are transistor amplifiers replaced in a multi stage amplifier?

Hence they are replaced by Multi-stage transistor amplifiers. In Multi-stage amplifiers, the output of first stage is coupled to the input of next stage using a coupling device. These coupling devices can usually be a capacitor or a transformer. This process of joining two amplifier stages using a coupling device can be called as Cascading.

How are two stage amplifiers connected in Cascade?

This process of joining two amplifier stages using a coupling device can be called as Cascading. The following figure shows a two-stage amplifier connected in cascade. The overall gain is the product of voltage gain of individual stages. Where A V = Overall gain, A V1 = Voltage gain of 1 st stage, and A V2 = Voltage gain of 2 nd stage.

How to calculate the output of an amplifier?

Correspondingly, if we know the gain of an amplifier and the magnitude of the input signal, we can calculate the magnitude of the output. For example, if an amplifier with an AC current gain of 3.5 is given an AC input signal of 28 mA RMS, the output will be 3.5 times 28 mA or 98 mA:

How is the voltage gain of Q2 scaled?

Scaled by voltage division of Rb1 and beta*reac = 4:1, thus only 50X. The load on collector of Q2 is 4Kohm. Av is gm*Rc = 0.01 * 4K = 40X. But again we have that input 4:1 divider, so only 10X. Total gain is 50 * 10 = 500x.
