• Class A
360° conduction
least distortion, least efficient
• Class B
180° conduction
• Class C
less than 180° conduction

Gain of Junction Transistors
• Beta (b)
 Defined as the ratio IC/IB
 Determines the current gain of CE
amplifiers
 Typical values are 10 to 300
• Alpha (a)
 Defined as the ratio IC/IE
 Values less than 1, typically 0.98 or 0.99

Types of FET Amplifiers
• Common-Source
Corresponds to a CE circuit for a junction
transistor: signal inversion, voltage gain and
power gain.
• Common-Drain
Corresponds to a CC circuit for a junction
transistor: no signal inversion, no voltage gain,
has power gain.
• Common-Gate
Corresponds to a CB circuit for a junction
transistor: no signal inversion, voltage gain and
power gain.
