Lab 5 - Second 3 Stage Amplifier Design - DRAFT

3 stage small-signal amplifier: 1st stage: common emitter, no CE 2nd stage: common emitter, with CE 3rd stage: common collector Goals: voltage gain >= 50 input resistance >= 15k output resistance < 100 maximum unclipped output of 2Vpp power supply of 9V and lower current drain from supply voltage NB: updated from design 1 using 2 coupling capacitors within stages.
