Hi, I am new here and I need some help on a massive project that has a large bearing on our end of year results.
Its got to do with clipping of an output signal in a common emmitter BJT n-p-n Voltage Amplifier circuit.
It asks us to comment on the clipping and relate it to Vs and Vc. Where Vs is the supply voltage and Vc is the collector voltage.
It's just that the values we got are confusing. For the supply(Vs) we got 5.03 with a gain of approx. 50. There was clipping of the output on both positive and negative cycles. The collector voltage (Vc) was 2.429 and the clipping occurs around 0.85V and 3.9V. How do you get clipping at those values, with that supply, gain and input?
Am i missing something blatantly obvious here?
I really need someone to guide me through the calculations as all the theories I have searched on the internet failed to help me. There are 2 other similar questions but if someone answers this, I am pretty confident I can work the other two out.
You might need more info, please tell me.
Thanks!
