    This document describes an experiment to examine the characteristics of a common collector (CC) amplifier circuit. The objectives are to examine the CC amplifier's characteristics and calculate its gain. The circuit diagram shows a CC amplifier circuit using a BC107 BJT with input applied to the base and collector, and output taken from the emitter-collector connection. The procedure involves connecting the circuit, applying input signals of varying frequency, measuring the corresponding output voltages, and calculating gain values to plot the frequency response.

    THEORY
    In common collector amplifier as the collector resistance is made to zero, the collector is
    at AC ground that is the reason for which the circuit is also called as grounded-collector
    amplifier or this configuration has voltage gain close to unity and hence a change in base voltage
    appears as an equal change across the load at the emitter, hence the name emitter follower is
    given to this circuit. In other words, emitter follows the input signal.
    This circuit performs the function of impedance transformation over a wide range of
    frequencies with voltage gain close to unity. In addition to that, the emitter follower increases the
    output level of the signal. Since the output voltage across the emitter load can never exceed the
    input voltage to base as emitter-base junction would become back biased. Common collector
    state has a low output resistance, the circuit suitable to serve as buffer or isolating amplifier or
    couple to a load with large current demands.

    OPERATION
    Input is applied to base and collector. Output is from emitter-collector circuit. It should
    be apparent that the load resistor in the common-collector amplifier circuit receives both the base
    and collector currents, being placed in series with the emitter. Since the emitter lead of a
    Electronic Circuit Analysis and Design Laboratory Manual

    transistor is the one handling the most current (the sum of base and collector currents, since base
    and collector currents always mesh together to form the emitter current), it would be reasonable
    to presume that this amplifier will have a very large current gain. This presumption is indeed
    correct: the current gain for a common-collector amplifier is quite large, larger than any other
    transistor amplifier configuration. However, this is not necessarily what sets it apart from other
    amplifier designs.

    4. Observe the output in CRO. Calculate the corresponding gain and compare with the
    designed values.
    5. Vary the frequency of the input signal and tabulate the output signal gain for different
    frequencies.
    6. Plot the Frequency Vs Gain (dB) using semilog sheet and calculate the bandwidth of the
    given amplifier from the plot.
