Theory:

A self biased common emitter amplifier can provide both voltage and current gain at output and is stable versus variations
in temperature compared to its fixed biased counterpart.
Voltage drop across emitter resistor is given to be between 10-15% of power supply voltage; following equation can be used
to design RE:

RB is calculated using input loop equation:

Finally, collector resistor, RC is calculated from output loop equation:

Junction resistance of emitter is calculated using known expression:

Stage voltage gain is calculated by taking into account unloaded voltage gain i.e. and the loading effect on both
input and output sides:
 Similarly, Stage current gain is calculated by taking into account unloaded current gain i.e. and loading effect on both input
and output sides:

Procedure:
Design values of resistors using the expressions given in theory, following is the given data:
VCC=+ 15V, VCE=VCC/2, IC= 10mA, β=100, VE=0.1VCC, rs=50Ω, RL=1kΩ

Connect your designed circuit on breadboard

Apply AC input and vary its magnitude from 500mV to 3V with a uniform step size
vL
Measure output voltage using oscilloscope, your measured stage voltage gain is
vc

Compare measured and calculated stage voltage gain and calculate percentage error
