Question:

A feedback amplifier is shown in Fig. 8.49. Device data are as follows: βnpn= 200, βpnp= 100, |VBE(on)| = 0.7V, rb= 0, and |VA| = ˆž. If the dc input voltage is zero, calculate the overall gain vo/vi, the loop gain, and the input and output impedance at low frequencies. Compare your answers with a SPICE simulation. Also use SPICE to plot the complete large-signal transfer characteristic and find the second and third harmonic distortion in vofor a sinusoidal input voltage with peak-peak amplitude of 0.5 V at vi.
