The input capacitor in an amplifier is the______________ capacitor?

Correct answer: A. Coupling

  • A. Coupling
  • B. Bypass
  • C. Leakage
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

The input capacitor transfers the AC signal to the transistor while blocking DC bias from the source, so it is a coupling capacitor. A bypass capacitor instead provides an AC path around a resistor, commonly the emitter resistor.
