The total gain of a multistage amplifier is less than the product of the gains of individual stages due to____________?
Correct answer: B. Loading effect of the next stage
- A. Power loss in the coupling device
- B. Loading effect of the next stage
- C. The use of many transistors
- D. The use of many capacitorsSource Electronic Components
Explanation
The next amplifier stage loads the preceding stage, reducing its effective output and hence the overall gain. Therefore, the total gain is usually less than the simple product of unloaded stage gains.
