A change in the value of the emitter resistance Re in a differential amplifier?

Correct answer: B. affects the common mode gain Ac

  • A. affects the difference mode gain Ad
  • B. affects the common mode gain Ac
  • C. affects both Ad and Ac
  • D. does not effect either Ad and Ac

Explanation

Changing the emitter or tail resistance mainly changes the common-mode gain because common-mode currents flow through this resistance. The ideal difference-mode gain is largely independent of it.
