Last time on Circuit VR, we looked at creating a very simple common emitter amplifier, but we didn’t talk about how to select the capacitor values, or much about why we wanted them. We are going to ...

This headphone amplifier provides a gain of less than 10 by a single stage common emitter amplifier and then via a direct coupled emitter follower configuration per each channel. As it seen from the ...

Emitter followers are well known for being prone to oscillation if they're feeding a capacitive load. The trait is shared however, with source followers, cathode followers ( Remember vacuum tubes?? ) ...

For ultra fast switching of power MOSFET and IGBT loads, the ZXGD3005E6 10A gate driver relies on an emitter follower configuration to deliver propagation delay times of less than 10 ns and rise and ...

Most buffer amplifiers use some kind of “follower” circuit such as a BJT or a MOS in a common-collector or common-drain configuration. Such transistors, however, have a finite transconductance (gm) ...
