Amplifier
An amplifier is an electronic device that
increases/boosts the power of a signal
It does this by taking energy from a power supply and
controlling the output to match the input signal shape
but with a larger amplitude
Amplifiers are dependent sources
Amplifier
If the transformer is an amplfier?
Applications
An amplifier widely used in almost all electronic
equipment.
Signal generated by transducers like thermocouple,
turntable etc.
Audio amplifier amplifies the signals in the audio
RF amplifiers amplify frequencies in the radio
frequency
Example
Stereo amplifier
Amplification works in two stages
