EE 440 - DESIGN SET #1 - DUE ONE WEEK
SPICE OR MICROCAP REQUIRED
PROB 1
Design an amplifier with the following specifications:
1. Gain
: Over 1500
2. Frequency Response: 10 Hz - 200 KHz + 2 db
3. RC coupled
4. Input Impedance
: 1 Megohm or greater
5. Output Impedance : less than 100 ohm
6. Capable of driving a 10 Kohm load to + 10 Volts output
7. Only discrete devices may be used including : Vacuum Tubes, FETS,MOSFETS,
BJTS. These may be used in any combination/configuration except that no
differential amplifier is allowed. Also no feedback except for bias/gain
control resistors in the cathode, source, or emitter of the devices.
8. Specify only EIA parts
9. Temperature Range : 25 - 100 oC
A. Show how to determine the number of stages from the gain, frequency
response requirement
B. Show how you made your device selection
C. Show all calculations including how you specify your coupling and bypass capacitors.
D. State all assumptions at every stage
