In circuit A the signal form mic AC (very low amplitude )

In summary, circuit A and circuit B both involve combining a low amplitude AC signal from a microphone with a voltage source. In circuit A, the two voltage sources are in series, resulting in an increase in amplitude before passing through a BJT and reaching the loudspeaker. In circuit B, the voltage source is directly combined with the AC signal and passed to the loudspeaker without a BJT. The role of the BJT in circuit A is to amplify the signal before reaching the loudspeaker. Circuit B is not recommended because connecting a DC voltage source directly to a speaker would not result in audible sound.

consider two circuits:
In circuit A the signal form mic AC (very low amplitude ) is combined with Vbb(to drive the BJT), as the two voltage sources are series they adds up and its amplitude increases and it is passed to bjt and then to loudspeaker.

in circuit B the signal form mic AC (very low amplitude ) is combined with V(DC voltage source) so voltage source in series adds up and its amplitude increases it is directly passed to the loudspeaker without BJT.

my doubt is:
I find in the amplification circuits BJT is used. by the above second method the voltage amplitude increases by combining the low amplitude signal from the mic with an external DC source, as the voltage increases current increases(I=V/R) so in that case the a high amplitude signal reaches the loudspeaker in circuit B.
THEN WHAT ROLE THE BJT plays in CIRCUIT A, what happens if CIRCUIT B IS BROUGHT UNDER PRACTICE.

You should not connect DC to a speaker, but even if you did, the sound from the speaker would only be caused by the small varying signal from the microphone.
You probably would not hear anything.

A speaker has very little resistance, so if you placed this directly across a microphone, the microphone would produce very little signal because the microphone has a comparatively high internal resistance.
 

FAQ: In circuit A the signal form mic AC (very low amplitude )

1. What is the purpose of using circuit A for the mic signal?

Circuit A is used to amplify the very low amplitude signal from the mic, making it easier to detect and process for further use.

2. How does the low amplitude signal from the mic get converted to a higher amplitude signal?

Circuit A uses amplification components such as transistors or op-amps to increase the voltage of the mic signal, thus converting it to a higher amplitude signal.

3. Can circuit A also be used for other low amplitude signals, or only for mic signals?

Circuit A can be used for any low amplitude signal, not just mic signals. It is commonly used for any type of analog signals that require amplification.

4. Is circuit A necessary for all mic signals, even those with higher amplitudes?

Circuit A is not necessary for mic signals with higher amplitudes, as they can be directly processed without the need for amplification. It is mainly used for very low amplitude mic signals.

5. Are there any drawbacks to using circuit A for mic signals?

One potential drawback of using circuit A for mic signals is that it can introduce noise or distortion to the amplified signal. This can be minimized by using high-quality components and proper circuit design.
