A Practical Approach for Analysis of Input and Output Impedances of Feedback Amplifiers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Abramovitz, A. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2009
This paper suggests a pedagogical approach to teaching the subject of the analysis of feedback amplifiers for electrical engineering students at the undergraduate level. Special attention is given to derivation of the input and output impedances. In order to make the procedure clear and suitable for classroom presentation an alternative proof of…
