An amplifier without feedback has a voltage gain of 50,input resistance os 1 KΩ & Output resistance of 2.5KΩ.The input resistance of the current-shunt negative feedback amplifier using the above amplifier with a feedback factor of 0.2 is___________?

Correct answer: A. 1/11KΩ

  • A. 1/11KΩ
  • B. 1/5KΩ
  • C. 5KΩ
  • D. 11KΩ

Explanation

Current-shunt feedback reduces input resistance by the factor 1 + Aβ. Here 1 + Aβ = 1 + 50(0.2) = 11, so the new input resistance is 1 kΩ/11 = 1/11 kΩ.
